1. CHAPTER 2
SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,
AND SOCIETY AND THE
HUMAN CONDITION

2. LESSON
1
OBJECTIVES ..........
Identify different conceptions of human flourishing;
 determine the development of the scientific method and validity of
science; and
 critic human flourishing vis-a-vis progress of science and
technology to be able to define for themselves the meaning of a
goodlife.

3. Is the ability to live a good life. Rooted
in Aristotelian ethics, it values health
intrinsically and applies universally to
all human lives. Human flourishing
embraces our shared humanity and
serves everyone’s interest.
it means we’re on a path towards
physical and mental wellbeing that’s
holistically good, both for individuals
and communities.

4. Eudaimonia, literally “GOOD SPIRITED” is a term
coined by renowned Greek philosopher Aristotle
(385-323 BC) to describe the pinnacle of happiness
that is attainable by humans. This has often been
translated into “human flourishing” inliterature,
arguably likening humans to flower achieving their
full bloom

5. In the beginning , early people relied on simple machines to make
hunting and gathering easier.
People found means to live more comfortably, explore more places,
develop more products, and make more money , and then repeating
the process in full circle.
As time change, elements that comprise human flourishing changed,
which are subject to the dynamic social history as written by humans.
Our concept of human flourishing today proves to be different from
what Aristotle originally perceived the humans of today are expected to
become a “man of the world”.
He is supposed to situate himself in a global neighborhood, working
side by side among institutions and thegovernment to be able to reach
a common goal

6. Competition as a means o suvival has become passe;
coordination is the new trend.
Interestingly, there exists a discrepancy between eastern and western
conception regarding society and human flourshing.
It has been observed that western civilization tends to be more focused
on the individual , while those from cast are more community-centric.

7. HOW IMPORTANT IS HUMAN
FLOURISHING AND HOW WILL
ACHIEVE IT?

8. For us, human flourishing begins
with self- determination and agency,
scaffolded by strong social relatonships.
We flourish when we live with purpose; when
we practice gratitude, forgiveness
and open- mindedness.We cultivate
character strenght and resilience to
flourish in adversity, to lead with
emphathy and virtue.

9. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS
OF HUMAN FLOURISHING?

10. Happiness and life satisfaction ,
meaning and purpose , character
and virtue, and close social
relationships.

11. IS HUMAN FLOURISHING AND
HAPPINESS THE SAME?

12. Flourishing is more than just being
happy , although that’s part of it.
But the idea of flourishing expands
beyond happiness to look at
a person’s overall well-being,
taking into account things like
life satisfaction or someone’s
sense of purpose.

13. SCIENCE , TECHNOLOGY AND HUMAN FLOURISHING
 every discovery, innovation, and success contributes to
our pool of human knowledge.

14. SCIENCE AS METHODS AND RESULTS

15. VERIFICATION THEORY
 The earliest criterion that distinguishes
philosophy and science is verification
theory. The idea proposes that a discipline
is science if it can be confirmed or
interpreted in the event of an aternative
hypothesis being accepted.

16. falsification theory
 Perhaps the current prevalent methodology in
science, falsification theory asserts that as long as
an ideology is not proven to be false and can best
explain a phenomenom over alternative theories,
we should accept the said ideolog. Due to its
hospitable character, the shift to this theory
allowed emergence of theories otherwise rejected
by verification theory.

17. science as a social endeavor
 Science help us to connect ourselves with the different
cultures.

18. science and results
science is not the only discipline
which is able to produce results,
religion,luck, and human
randomness
are some of its contemporaries in
the field.

19. science as education
Human flourishing requires us to excel in various dimension.

20. LESSON
2
OBJECTIVES......
 explain the concept of human condition before science
technology;
 identify the change that happened in human condition after
science and technology; and
 name ways on how technology aided in revealing the truth
about the human being.

21. INTRODUCTION ....
Comparing the lives of the people before and now
will make anyone realize the changes not just in
terms of culture, language , or rights. But more
importantly , changes in people’s way of life.

22. THE HUMAN CONDITION BEFORE
COMMON ERA
People before the common era gifted with brains;
more advance than other creatures. Human are able to
utilize abundant materials for their own ease and comfort
that they discover new things to motivate their selves to
do, and use the tools with a purpose.
Homo erectus have been using fire to cook,
chipping to produce a spark and without
realizing the laws of friction and heat.

25. People discover minerals and began forging metal
work. Just like their jewelries considered to be a
luxury forthem such as bones of animals they hunt.
Different tribes may have different gods.

26. Fur clothing and animal skin are
primarily used for comfort against
harsh winds.

27. the human condition in the
common era
For a long time, humans
were contented with their
relationship with nature.
Earliest case of man-made
extinctionoccured over 12,000 years
ago, possibly brought upon by hunting
and territorial
disputes.

28. notable comparison then and
now
 MORALITY RATE
 AVERAGE LIFESPAN
 LITERACY RATE
 GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT

29. THE ESSENCE OF TECHNOLOGY
 Humanity has indeed come along way from
our primitive ways , and has a general rule, we
are more “develop” than we were before. We
see ways and means from nature to utilize and
achieve growth a goa that we believe would
bring forth bettement.
 Martin Heidegger a philosopher
argued that the essence of
technology, or purpose, and
being are different from eah
other to achieve man’s end and
second which constitutes
human activity.

30. LESSON
3
THE GOOD LIFE
OBJECTIVES ........
 Examines what is meant by a good Life;
 identify how humans attempt to attain what is
deemed to be a good life; and
 recognize possiblities available to human being to
attain the good life.

38. MATERIALISM
The first materialistic were the AUTOMISTS in
ANCIENT GREECE, DEMOCRITUS and LEUCIPPUS
LEUCIPPUS led a sChool whose primary beliefs
beliefs is that the world is made up of and is
controlled by the tiny indivisible units in the
world called ATOMOS or SEEDS.
Accordingly, the world including human
beings, is possess immaterial entities as
sources of purposes. ATOMS simply comes
together randomly to form the things in the
world. As such, only material intities matter.

39. MATERIALISM
In terms of human flourishing, MATTER is
what makes us attain happiness. The
MATERIAL THINGS we possess give us
ULTIMATE HAPPINESS.
We see this at work with most people who
are clinging on to MATERIAL WEALTH as the
primary source of meaning of their
existence.

40. hedonism
The HEDONISTS see the end goal of life in
acquiring PLEASURES.
PLEASURE has always been the priority of
hedonists, For them, life is obtaining and
indulging in pleasure because life is limited.
They believe that pleasure give meaning to
their life without thinking of the future. The
mantra of this school of thought is the famous;
“Eat, drink, and merry for tomorrow we will
die.”

41. stoicism
Another school of thought led by EPICURUS , the
stoics, exposed the idea that to generate happiness,
happiness, one must learn to distance onneself and be
APATHETIC.
The original term apatheia, precisely means to be
indifferent. This group believe that they can do
things at their own and believe happiness can only be
attained by careful practice of apathy.

42. theism
Most people find the meaning of their lives using GOD
as the fulcrum of their existence.
The Philippines , as a predomininant Catholic country, is
witness to how people base their life goals on beliefs that
hinged on some form of supernatural reality called heaven.
The ultimate basis of happiness for theists is the
communion with God.

43. humanism
HUMANISM is another school of thought espouss the
freedom of man to carve his own destiny and to
legislate his own laws free from the shackles of a
god that monitors and controls.
For humanists, man is literally the captain of his own
ship. They see themselves not merely as stewards of
the creation but as individuals who are in control of
themselves and the world outside them.

being are incapable of doing.
they can perform the simplest task at home
 usually found in amusement parks or exhibits.

58. LAWS BY ISAAC ASIMOV (1940s) when he was thinking of
the ethical consequences of robots.
LAW ONE:
A robot may not
injure a human
being or through
inaction , allow a
human being to
come to harm.
LAW TWO:
A robot must obey
the orders given it
by human beings
except where such
orders would
conflict with the first
law.
LAW THREE:
A robot must
protect its own
existence as long
as such protection
does not conflict
with the first or
second law.
