• Technology consists of a set of knowledge (science) and abilities (techniques) that allows people to meet their needs and, therefore, improve their living conditions.
What´s technology?

• When applying technology in order to solve our problems, we don´t act on impulse.
The technological process
• We proceed in a careful and organized manner, following a specific work method.
• This work method is called the technological process.

• The technological process is the work method used by technology and consists of the ordered sequence of steps that must be followed in order to meet a need or solve a problem.

The technological process• What are the steps or phases involved in solving
a problem?
• They are almost always the same.

Steps of the technological process
Describing and analysing the need• The need must be precisely
identified.• The conditions of the solution must
be clearly defined.

Steps of the technological process
Searching for information• We must perform an exhaustive search
for information related with the problem.
• Where? In the solutions of similar situations, books, people specializing in the subject, on the internet…

Steps of the technological process
Generating and selecting ideas• After a brainstorming, we´ll put into
practice the most suitable idea for our need.
• We must design the chosen object, which involves drawing the solution, specify dimensions, materials, costs, operations, etc.

Steps of the technological process
Executing the design• We must plan the necessary actions
to carry out our design. • The work plan show us the
necessary tasks we must complete and the resources needed to complete them.

Steps of the technological process
Evaluating• The evaluating allows us to determine
whether the problem has been solve or not.
• After the evaluating, we decide if modify our object, repeat the process… in order to find the expected solution.
