INTRODUCTION
Science and technology is a term of art used to encompass the relationship between science and technology. It frequently appears within titles of academic disciplines (science and technology studies) and government offices.
Science and technology studies (STS) is the study of how social, political, and cultural values affect scientific research and technological innovation, and how these in turn affect society, politics, and culture. More than two dozen universities worldwide offer baccalaureate degrees in STS; about half of these also offer doctoral or master's programs.
The history of science and technology (HST) is a field of history which examines how humanity understands of the natural world (science) and ability to manipulate it (technology) has changed over the millennia. This field of history also studies the cultural, economic, and political impacts of scientific innovation
So our group very interest to do an article about science and technology because people should know the important and usage of technology because it make our life more confortable.in the other way, the using technology in our daily activity make it more efficient.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
Firstly, thank you to all my friends that together with me to complete this
coursework Not only that, also thank to my English Language Proficiency lecturer,
Encik Azizan as my tutor in this subject.
Doing I complete this coursework, MY group and I very excited because we can
explore the urbanization of science and technology. Science and technology are very
useful in education, sport, and health and environment field to make it better.
From doing this coursework, I get lot of knowledge and information from outer
source like in the internet, reference books and other people suggestion. In addition
to, I can I get a lot of information about technology.
Technology can be defined as science applied to practical purposes. Nowadays,
when the rapidness of development and research is so impressive, it is easy to think
about the advantages of modern technology. Nevertheless some people argue that
science can destroy mankind. It is also obvious that we are close on an era where
technology is limited only by our imagination. Therefore the most frequently asked
question is: does technology go the right way and will it save or ruin our civilization?
Lastly, thanks all people who include in my course work. Your contributions I will
not forget. Thank you..

MARKING COURSE WORK FORM
CONCLUSIONThe term technology has had an interesting evolution. Originally it was used to refer
to the processing of raw materials. However, production turned out to be but one
small aspect of the resources and activities involved in successfully running an
industrial organization. Gradually awareness grew that a combination of scientific
knowledge and accumulated experience is necessary to run any large system, no
matter what its nature. Thus, with the evolution of modern society, technology's role
has increased enormously in depth and in scope.
Technology is not the only factor shaping our future, but there is no doubt that it will
play a decisive role in all efforts to change our world. Knowing this, it would be too
risky to allow technology to develop without monitoring its trends in terms of social
needs. Already a new activity, technology forecasting and assessment, is becoming
a prominent part of any national and global planning. The speed of technological
progress has increased so much that, without a strategy of technological
development, the economic and defensive capabilities of any country could be
seriously undermined.
Choosing an adequate strategy for technological development has become a highly
delicate issue, especially for developing countries. Traditional approaches, such as
giving top priority to heavy industry, have lost much of their value because many
other industries, once at the bottom of the priority list, have been promoted to the top
(food production, data processing, raw materials, and so forth). On the other hand,
many options in the selection of an appropriate strategy for technological
development that did not exist 30 or 40 years ago are available today.
The most powerful factors shaping our technology - union of science, research and
technology as well as extensive technological education - were almost non-existent
until the middle of the nineteenth century.
REFLECTIONFirst of all, I would like to greet my basic mathematics lecturer Madam Ng because
give her hand to me for complete this coursework. Great appreciation goes to my
parents that give me advices and inspirations to complete this short coursework. I
also very pleasure to thanks to my friends that help me a lot during doing this
coursework.
What i can conclude from thus coursework is this piece is by no means an
exhaustive study of future technology, for that would require enormous effort and
detailed analysis. Most probably it will take another hundred years before the
transition from profit-motivated and economic growth-oriented development to
human factor-dominated technology is achieved. But the transition has already
begun and there is no turning back.
Having to choose between mere generalities and technical considerations, I wanted
to present, in the first place, a possible outline for international research activity in
the domain of technology and society. History of technology, multidisciplinary studies
of the impact of technology, the strategy of technological development and
technology forecasting and assessment seem to be pieces of a new, comprehensive
field of academic activity. The issues raised are of such fundamental and general
importance that the United Nations University seems to be the most appropriate
institution to launch such a research programme. As noted, during the Industrial
Revolution academic institutions were not anxious to invest their intellectual
resources in engineering and technology. This time, the university is given another
chance to assume a leading role at a time of transition. We should not remain
passively watching the emergence of new relations between society and technology.
New living conditions have placed new requirements on technology. It is a matter of
complex multidisciplinary studies to propose more precise guidelines for a strategy of
technological development in our era. At this point I shall just present a sketch of
some of the options which lie before us.
a. Urban technology. So far it has been technology's role to support the functioning
of human settlements whose basic profiles and growth have been determined by the
needs of consumer society, commerce, banking, industry and administration.
Eventually, with increased social consciousness and in the face of an alarming
deterioration in the quality of life in metropolitan areas, steps were taken to use
technology to improve the worst effects of the urban crisis.
From a long-term point of view, palliative measures cannot resolve the problem;
instead, the basic approach must be changed. Social, urban, regional and economic
planning must be granted the same status as other factors so that human needs are
matched not to patterns imposed by the past but to projects containing completely
new value systems. For instance our cities would certainly offer much better
opportunities for human contact if urban transportation systems had been built on the
principle of pedestrian zones, public transportation and individual motorized
displacement. New technology for human settlements must be oriented in a way
which will strike a better balance between human needs and economic constraints.
b. Health care systems. The most striking fact about health services is the very idea
that "health care," conceived as a nation-wide system, is relatively new. The basic
human right to have equal access to the best medical care available is still far from a
reality in our world. Technology is certainly one restraint on progress in this area.
Medical instrumentation, hospital management and existing organizational
institutions are still unable to accomplish the transition from the centuries-old practice
of "small-scale operations" to the full coverage of citizens' demands in health
services. Our current knowledge of automation, electronics, computers,
telecommunications and so forth is such that with concurrent efforts of science,
technology and organized social forces a much better functioning of large-scale
health care systems can be assured.
The effect of profit-motivated technology on the drug industry is another deep
problem related to health care. How many of the drugs bombarding us are effective,
semi-effective or ineffective remains to be analysed, though drug and food safety
regulations are certainly a small step in the right direction. Technology's future role in
health care presents great challenges and expectations. Neglecting health care
problems is a reflection more of misplaced social priorities than of current technology
deficiencies.
c. Management technology. I have pointed out that the most adverse effects on
human rights in the production sphere occur during decision making processes.
Authoritative management was understandable in the early stages of technological
development when a large amount of physical labour was a sine qua non for any
production system. However, the advent of modern automation and the computer
makes any kind of non-creative, degraded human work obsolete, provided there is
enough professional and social support. The basic question today is not mass
production but the human factor. Quite a change in a rather short historical period:
let us not forget that the industrial era relied heavily on child and illiterate labour, as
well as pushing workers to the limits of human endurance.
Lastly, thanks all people who include in my course work. Your contributions I will
not forget.. Thank you..
