What is
technology?
Let's answer that question by
asking another:
What isn´t
technology?
Look out a window.
Perhaps you see trees, plants,
rocks, or other natural items.
That's what technology isn't:
anything created by nature
Sand, as it exists
in nature, doesn't
involve
technology, and
neither does
water.
People take those natural
materials and turn them into
useful products.
Trees are turned into lumber
to make houses and furniture.
Plants such as asparagus and
tomatoes are put into cans
and sold as food.
Special rocks like iron ore are
turned into metal and sand
can be changed into glass.
Water can be used to make
soft drinks.
And Technology is
involved in all the
products,
inventions, and
discoveries made
by people.
And so on…
How much do you know about
technology
 Do you know how
inventors invent?
 Do you know what makes your bike
work?
 Do you understand how
technology can hurt the
environment?
Throughout this year you are
going to learn the answers to
these questions and many more
about technology.
You will also learn to do
technology.
Best of all, you will probably
learn
to enjoy technology
