Adapting to Diverse Science Culture for Development

Science is systematized body of knowledge acquired through various processes such as observation, inference, making of hypothesis, experimentation and formulating of conclusion or generalization.

The application of science leads to the development of technology. Technology is the art craft and skill of harnessing scientific knowledge. Technology has improved the quality of life in many ways. DNA analysis is now used to solve crimes. Packaged livelihood technologies produced goods and provide work and income. Nuclear research has brought about technologies for treating cancer, preserving food and providing energy. Harnessing energy from the sun has brought about solar-powered batteries for calculators and batteries. The aqualungs allowed man to explore the ocean depths thereby opening the underwater world for deeper exploration. Cellular phones, computers or a television set that we need in our daily life are products of technology.

All of this are how science and technology, hand in hand influence our lives.

Language not belittle.....

We use communication to talk with other people. There are many kinds of languages and it depends to the place we were going.

Of all the languages in the world, "Wikang Filipino" is incomparable. This is our country's language. We can use it in any part of the Philippines. In Luzon, Visayas or in Mindanao. Before we had no language yet. When Manuel L. Quezon became the President, he went around the different provinces. They have their own dialects. Quezon did not understand their language and he needs an interpreter. So he decided to have our country's language "Wikang Filipino". From that time he spread the use of our country's language, "Ang Wikang Filipino" that bind us in our thoughts and feelings.

It is very important that we must know and learn about the different languages to have an effective communication to the progress of our country. It helped us a lot to stick together for all Filipinos. Let us give importance to our language not to belittle it because it shows our country's identity.
