I.

​ Give three major scientific and technological developments in the world (or in the
Philippines) that created a large impact on your daily life.

1. Internet—It is an important technological development because it is a limitless space


where people have access to infinite amounts of information. These days, we rely
heavily on the internet for new knowledge to feed off. We use the knowledge we get
from the internet for overall learning and understanding of life. The internet is
limitless.

2. Digital Media—The development of digital media has changed our everyday lives in
the way we connect and collaborate with society, in school and, for the working
class, in their workplace. It helps tremendously with the way we communicate and
interact with each other.

3. Mobile phones—The development of mobile phones is probably one of the best


inventions in the history of mankind because it made communication easier all over
the world, no matter where we may be. Connecting with each other has never been
easier. It plays an important role in allowing us to talk to our loved ones easily.

II. ​What historical antecedents gave rise to the inventions you mentioned in the first
question?

1. The Internet was first invented for military purpose. Its invention later developed for
purposes of communications among scientists. The invention was also prompted
because of the increasing need for communication during the Cold War (Cold war
between the Soviet Union and the United States). It was important to have
communication between the military and university computers that would not be
disrupted by spies.
2. The use of digital media only began in the late 20th century. Its conceptualization
can be traced to the work of Vannevar Bush, a scientist and engineer. Bush foresaw
a system of devices that will help doctors, historians, and scientists to store, analyse
and communicate information. It was called “Memex,” an imaginary device, back in
the day.
3. It was in 1973 when Martin Cooper changed the world, but didn’t realize it. Cooper
collaborated with Motorola, a communications company, and created the cell phone
for the purpose of wanting people to have the freedom to talk anywhere with a more
portable device.
III. ​How did the developments in Science and Technology shape human history?

The developments in science and technology completely changed the way humans
live and eventually shaped human history. The advancement in these fields promoted
economic growth and elevated the standard of living. The internet, digital media, mobile
phones, and other technological developments allow people to communicate instantly and
goods to move faster from one place to another.
