    The document discusses the relationship between technology and achieving a good life. It asks students to compare more and less technologically advanced methods of doing the same thing, like email versus snail mail. While the more advanced option may seem better, a less advanced method could also achieve a good life. The document considers whether the more technologically advanced option is always better. One student response argues the advanced option is usually better because it is ahead of others and popular. However, another response notes technology can enable either good or bad outcomes for health, so technological advances are not always leading to a good life.

    Lesson 3 Activity 3: The Good Life

    Compare and Contrast


    Identify two modes of doing the same thing where one involves a more
    technologically advanced method. Example would be snail mail vs. e-mail. List down
    as many examples. Brainstorm with a partner if a less technologically sophisticated
    mechanism can actually turn out to be better in terms of reaching for the good life. Is
    the more technologically advanced always better?

    1. Yahoo mail vs G-mail


    2. AllTheInternet vs Google search
    3. Facetime vs Skype
    4. Messenger vs Telegram
    5. Musical.ly vs Tiktok
    6. Snow vs Snapchat
    7. B612 vs SODA
    8. Facebook vs Instagram
    9. Google meet vs Hangouts
    10. Powerdirector vs Kinemaster
    11. Google chrome vs Microsoft edge
    12. Internet explorer vs Opera search engine

    If a less technologically sophisticated mechanism can actually turn out to be better in


    terms of reaching for the good life.

    For me, a less technologically sophisticated mechanism can also be a way of


    achieving a good life, because it also has similarities with the more technologically
    advanced ones and sometimes they're the basis for making the advanced ones even
    better.

    Is the more technologically advanced always better?

    I think yes, because if something is advance, it means it's always ahead of


    others. So for me, the more technologically advanced ones are really better because
    we can make sure that they have a new feature that is better than the previous one.
    And if the more technologically advanced is really good, many people will use it only
    then you will be able to see and prove that what you've done is popular and useful.

    1. What is good life?
    According to Aristotle a good life is human flourishing, a kind of contentment in
    knowing that one is getting the best out of life. A kind of feeling that one has maxed
    out his potentials in the world, that he has attained the crux of his humanity.
    2. What is the relationship between the good life and science?
    Well, good life is related to science. It is science that gives good life to all and, at
    the same time, it is the quest for good life that stimulates science. In this vast world,
    where the number of inventions is growing rapidly, science has made life more
    convenient.

    3. Does technology always lead us to the good life? How and why?
    Yes, because technology leads to a good life, as it is responsible for
    advancement in all sectors of the economy. It's because it gives us the means to
    achieve something faster and easier. Modern technology has led to the development
    of a number of devices, such as smartphones, computers, etc., which make it
    convenient to complete our work. But there are times that they're not always good,
    they can be either good or bad for us. We think that technological advances can be
    dangerous to health, for example our phones transmit waves and we can become
    sterile, or we can have cancer or brain tumors. Technical advances may be either
    good or unhealthful.
