About

My perspective about science and the humanities has somewhat changed from the start of the course because I didn’t look at big image. The critical thinking blogs did help me understand the course a bit more. With the blogs I was able to go back like they are my notes of certain things to help me with my essays. I also view other blogger and they could construct things a tad more clearly. It helped me understand subjects in the course. Science and technology is used for everyday in human life. We use phones, computers, ipads etc to connect to the internet. We also go to work and school, socialize with peers and associates. Blogging is a way to communicate where we talk and learn about news and others. To say that blogging is a way of modern technology and in a means a word of mouth epidemic. I am more optimistic of science and the technologies because I studied it in course for three months. I also can say that I am a person of both science and humanities because I use it daily, need i

I feel that the responsibilities of a scientist are to make sure that they are able to control their work and know that there will not be an outbreak. It is to secure the existence of humanity. The scientific progress of having something go wrong is always a possibility. The reason for it is to check if there is opportunity of something new whether its life, or disease. It is the likelihood of knowing if something can be done to protect man kind or go against it. Science has unintended consequences. Take Futurama exhibit in the World’s Fair for instance. It was to benefit the American people after the war. It was supposed to improve lives and technology by having automobiles, superhighways, and a suburbia. The perfect world, a utopia but in fact it that would lead to global warming. Or take artificial intelligence for instance. Scientist built something that can completely one day take over humanity. One example of that is going online, making a profile and then entering a captcha a

This weeks blog I wanted to write it on a female scientist named Rosalind Franklin. With a short life span of thirty-seven years, Franklin was a distributer to the structure of DNA. She had a tough life growing up with the fact that she was a woman. At the time women where not taken seriously in the scientific field. She did not receive fair treatment but she was able to contribute an understanding of “essential roles in cells metabolism and genetics.” She was intelligent and the structure helped scientists understand how genetic information is passed from parents to children. During her life’s work she faced sexism and she was not recognized for her work. She did not always see eye to eye with her male scientist. Raymond Gossling took a picture of Franklin’s image of an x-ray diffraction of DNA. With out her knowledge it was distributed around to James D. Watson, Maurice Wilkins, and Francis Crick where Franklin was not recognized. She did help bridge both cultures between scienc
