Introduction to GSTS

  • GSTS stands for Science, Technology, and Society
  • Learning Outcomes:
    • Discuss the general concepts and scopes of science and technology.
    • Discuss interactions between S&T and society throughout history.
    • Discuss how scientific and technological developments affect society and the environment.

What is Science?

  • Modern science is a discovery as well as an invention (John Heilbron, 2003)

Scientific Inquiry

  • Scientific inquiry is a process to follow.

The Scientific Method

  • Observation

  • Hypothesis
  • Experiment
    • Conduct experiments
    • Troubleshoot
  • Analysis
  • Conclusion
  • Communicate results.

What is Technology?

  • Technology is the practical application of scientific knowledge, which makes a human's sense or ability more powerful. (Mark Zuckerberg, 2014)

What is Society?

  • Society is a group of people with common values, interactions, territory, culture, etc.
  • Society is the sum total of interactions between humans, figuring things out and making things.

The Role of Science & Technology

The Roles/Impacts of Science & Technology

  • Science and technology alter the way people interact and connect. It has significant effects on economic development.
  • The effect of S&T on society is neither entirely beneficial nor entirely detrimental.
  • S&T is key to development, underpinning economic progress and improving health systems, education and infrastructure.
  • S&T improves lives in developing countries.
  • S&T impacts society and vice-versa

STS as a Discipline

  • The study of how society, politics and culture influence scientific research and technological innovation and vice-versa.
  • STS originated in the 1960s and 1970s.
  • STS is a result of a "sociological turn" in science studies.
  • It considers the social, political, and cultural contexts of science and technology.
