We invent devices to solve our problems.
A wheeled cart makes it easier to move
some heavy books.
A zipper holds your jacket closed and
helps you stay warm.
A bus or car with a thousand moving
parts takes you to school.
People who design new technology are
called engineers.
Engineers all over the world develop
technology that we use in our homes,
schools, and offices.
They use a set of steps called the design
process to develop products and
processes that solve problems.
Engineers find solutions that improve
communication, transportation,
entertainment, and healthful living.
People use technology to help them live
long, healthy lives.
Medical technology includes vaccines and
drugs, tools and equipment, and
procedures.
Today, vaccines help prevent people from
getting many illnesses in the first place.
Devices such as X-ray machines help
doctors to look for problems inside
patients’ bodies.
Surgical procedures enable doctors to
fix many problems inside the body.
Technology also can cause problems.
A medicine that cures one illness might
cause another.
X-ray machines expose patients to
radiation that can be harmful.
Surgical procedures can weaken the body
and expose patients to the risk of
infection.
