Heidegger: Technology as Way of Revealing PenmaryAuthor
Main points and a part of Martin Heidegger: The Question Concerning Technology
• Bringing Forth (Poeisis, Alethiea, Techne)
• Technology Challenge Forth
• Enframing as Modern’s Technology Way of Revealing (Calculative Thinking and Meditative Thinking)
Why is it that everyone is in the pursuit of the good life? One must find the truth what the good is before one can even try to locate that which is good.
Science, Technology and Society (STS) is an interdisciplinary field that studies the conditions under which the production, distribution and utilization of scientific knowledge and technological systems occur; the consequences of these activities upon different groups of people.

Why is it that everyone is in the pursuit of the good life? One must find the truth what the good is before one can even try to locate that which is good.
Science, Technology and Society (STS) is an interdisciplinary field that studies the conditions under which the production, distribution and utilization of scientific knowledge and technological systems occur; the consequences of these activities upon different groups of people.
Science and technology studies, or science, technology and society studies (STS) is the study of how society, politics, and culture affect scientific research and technological innovation, and how these, in turn, affect society, politics and culture.
The fields of nanoscience and nanotechnology are known for their contributions to the economy of all countries and almost every human life. They have the capability to foster new developments in science, technology and innovation through the dissemination of new knowledge and applications.
The purpose of the file "Science, Technology and Society" is to study and analyze the relationships between science, technology, and society. Here are some key points about the purpose of this file based on the provided web search results:
1. Achieving resolution of STS issues: The file aims to empower citizens who are literate in science and technology to make informed decisions and take responsible action in resolving science, technology, and society (STS) issues.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
3. Eudaimonia
Literally means good spirited
Coined by Greek philosopher Aristotle
(385-323 BC) the pinnacle of happiness
that is attained by humans.
This has often been translated into
human flourishing in literature
4.
5. • Human flourishes and finds meaning
in the world that he/she builds.
• Human may unconsciously acquire,
consume or destroy what the world
has to offer.

9. Science as A Social Endeavor
Several philosophers like Paul Thagard,
Imre Lakatos, Helen Longino, David
Bloor and Richard Rorty presented
science as a social endeavor.
This new view perpetuates a dimension
which generally benefits society.
10. Science and Results
People who do not understand
science are won over when the
discipline is able to produce
results.
Such disciplines are religion, luck,
and human randomness
11. How Much is Too much?
In 2000, world leaders signed the Millennium
Development Goals(MDG) that targets eight concerns,
one of which states that they should be able to forge
global partnership for development.
However, there are some setbacks in this. Economists
believe that growth is the primary indicator of
development. In that, resources are needed.
Technology has been a primary instrument in enabling
the global community to pursue such goal like utilizing
resources, machineries and labor.
12. How Much is Too much?
What is missing in this equation is, growth
presents an illusory notion od sustainability.
The same analogy applies to the capacity of
nature to accommodate our needs.
13. Group Presentation: For each group, state a brief history or

15. The Human Condition Before
Common Era
• Early ancestor’s primal need to survive
paved way for the invention of several
developments.
• Homo Erectus have been using fire to cook,
that marked the era of Stone Age
• Homo Sapiens began to sharpen stones like
knife
• People discovered minerals and began
metalwork.
16. The Human Condition in the
Common Era
• Formation of communities caused humans
to expand more in territory and more people
to feed; large separate communities hailing
from the same ancestors paved way for
civilizations.
• Humanity became more complex
• Primary goal was not merely to survive, but
to live a good life
17. The Human Condition in the
Common Era
• Position-wise, the humans of today are
much better off compared to humans
several centuries ago.
• Advancements in medicine, technology,
health and education were also noted
18. Notable comparison Then
and Now
• Mortality Rate
• Average Lifespan
• Literacy rate
• Gross Domestic Product (GDP)
36. ETHICAL DILEMMA FACED BY THESE
TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENTS
1. Most parents would argue that
these devices make their children
lazy and unhealthy.
2. Moral Dilemma
3.Taking credit for others' work.
37. ROBOTICS AND HUMANITY
Robots play different roles
not only in the lives of the
people but also in the
society as a whole. They
are primarily used to ease
the workload of mankind.
They were invented to
make life more efficient and
less stressful On one hand,
they perform complicated
activities which human
beings are incapable of
doing.
38. Roles Played by Robotics
Ease the workload of mankind
Perform complicated activities which
humans are incapable of doing
There are also robots which are made for
pleasure.
39. ETHICAL DILEMMALS FACED BY
ROBOTICS
1. Safety
Who should be accountable if someone’s
safety is compromised by a robot?
Who should be blamed, the robot, the
agent using the robot, or the
maker/inventor of the robot?
40. ETHICAL DILEMMALS FACED BY
ROBOTICS
1. Emotional Component
What if robots become sentient? Should
they be granted robot rights? Should they
have their own set of rights to be upheld,
respected and protected by humans?
