Abstract
While the learner grows as a person and grows in the range, depth, and meaning-fullness of his immediate personal-social relationships, he is simultaneously involved in a broader environmental and social relation of science and technology. He can be helped to develop a sense of the interdependence of field of knowledge and to become appreciative of the value of the experience of past generations. He can gain a conception of the growth and nature of science, and see the effects of its applications on social institutions. Social life and economic life are very closely related in modern scientific and technological society. The individual is entering into his role as a citizen in a society characterized by growing industrialization, by associational activity on an increasing scale, and by more and more disposition toward the solution of environmental and social problems. In this article, analysis of the personal-social implication of science and technology reveals a careful examination of a hidden code of the agricultural society and scientific and technological society. Especially the problems underlying all contemporary socio-scientific issues are carefully discussed and clarified.
