A. 3 Implications of Scientific Development in Contemporary Society


- Science and technology have improved our quality of life and provided us with more free
time. Furthermore, through science, diseases can be cured, and people can live longer and
healthier lives. Though science has a long history of improving people's lives, in recent
decades, its influence on individuals and society has grown significantly. A product of
technology can considerably simplify a variety of routine everyday situations.

1. For example, a machine that prepares coffee is convenient and timesaving. Products of
technology accelerate daily life and working processes and allow people to accomplish
more daily. This is time and labor saving, which allows a higher production.

- Scientific progress not only benefits individuals on a local level, but it also has a positive
impact on global issues. Without technology and science, the current level of
globalization would not have been feasible. Connection, communication, and trade are all
aided by this progress. This progress is largely responsible for the increasing global
market. Globalization, in addition to its commercial benefits, promotes peace through
technological growth. It not only strengthens corporate and political ties, but it also draws
people together.

2. For example, it is simple to be friends with people around the world thanks to social
networks and videoconferencing.

- Another advantage of scientific progress is the state of knowledge in medicine and health
care on which scientists work constantly.

3. As a result, both genders' average life expectancy is increasing each year. As a result of
all this hard work and study, modern medicine is now able to deliver the appropriate drug
for most diseases. There is no way of knowing what medical breakthroughs are on the
horizon, but there is no doubt that the future is bright.
B. 2 Reasons why Scientific Literacy is important
1. Science literacy is significant because it provides a context for solving societal issues,
and because a science-literate population can better cope with many of these issues
and make educated and informed decisions that will affect their lives and the lives of
their children.
2. Science literacy entails not just an understanding of fundamental concepts, but also an
appreciation of the relevance of scientific theories and hypotheses' "falsifiability," the
knowledge that scientific research is value-laden, and an understanding of scientific
investigation's problem-solving nature.

C. In summary

- The scientific revolution, which emphasized systematic experimentation as the most valid
research method, resulted in developments in mathematics, physics, astronomy, biology,
and chemistry. These developments transformed the views of society about nature.
Without this, we can’t understand the importance of science in our lives. Through science
and technology, it is easier for inhabitants to communicate with other people around the
globe. It is also significant in the field of business because transactions and other events
are done through the computer. Science and technology enable every people to live in an
easy and modern way of life. It opens the door and allows people to enter a new world
which is fully developed and well civilized.
