Hello, I am Mr. Good.  Welcome to Exploring Technology Systems.  In this class we will learn how technology systems work and how they impact our lives.  We will examine how technology is developed to solve problems as a result of demands, values, and interests of consumers and businesses.  In class we will identify how various technology such as medical technologies, agricultural/biotechnology, and communication technology may be developed with economic concerns considered more than environmental and/or long-term impacts.  The students will find solutions through use of experimentation to solve technological problems which has often been an essential useful strategy in scientific research.
