B. Reflection:
Make a reflection on the essence of technology using below guide questions.
(Minimum of 1000 words, double spaced, Arial Narrow 12)
1. Do people really need technology in their lives? Is it really a necessity? How do we
reconcile the need for technology and the dilemmas if faces? Give at least 1 specific example
related to your own field of courses.
2. From all the readings and materials provided, what is then the essence of technology to
you?

This is the period of smart phones, PCs, other mechanical devices that would have
all the predecessors of humankind expanding in amazement on the off chance that they can
ever observe the 21st century from the other domain. Technology has brought humankind
straightforwardness and solace. Numerous up to this point inconceivable exercises are
presently in any case. Technology even with its long history has come to remain.
As indicated by old principle, the essence of a thing is viewed as what the thing is.
We pose the inquiry concerning technology when we ask what it is. Everybody knows the
two explanations that answer our inquiry. One says: Technology is an unfortunate chore.
Different says: Technology is a human action. The two meanings of innovation have a place
together. For to place closes and secure and use the way to them is a human movement. The
assembling and use of hardware, instruments, and machines, the fabricated and utilized things
themselves, and the necessities and finishes that they serve, all have a place with what
innovation is. The entire complex of these contraptions is innovation. Innovation itself is a
contraption, or, in Latin, an instrumentum.
The present origination of technology, as indicated by which it is a methods and a
human action, can accordingly be known as the instrumental and anthropological meaning of
innovation.
Who might ever deny that it is right? It is in evident similarity with what we are
imagining when we talk about technology. The instrumental meaning of technology is surely
so uncannily right that it even holds for present day innovation, of which, in different regards,
we keep up with some legitimization that it is, rather than the more seasoned handwork
innovation, something totally unique and in this way new. Indeed, even the force plant with
its turbines and generators is a man-made necessary chore built up by man. Indeed, even the
stream airplane and the high-recurrence contraption are intends to closes. A radar station is
obviously less straightforward than a climate vane. Undoubtedly, the development of a high-
recurrence device requires the interlocking of different procedures of specialized modern
creation. And even a sawmill in a confined valley of the Black Forest is a crude methods
contrasted and the hydroelectric plant in the Rhine River.
Be that as it may, this much stays right: today’s technology also is an unfortunate
chore. That is the reason the instrumental origination of innovation conditions each endeavor
to carry man into the correct connection to innovation. Everything relies upon our controlling
technology in the correct way as a methods.
 Basically, technology isn't only a thing. It's the manner by which we identify with
the world. Therefore, it's nothing unexpected that various advances are, as a result, various
methods of identifying with the real world. Specifically, present day advances, or incredible
machines, are practical methods of vanquishing the world, since they typify nature and
transform it into an asset that can be evaluated, determined, and proportioned.
To put it plainly, we go from considering nature to be the marvels we're a piece of
two considering it to be normal assets for regular business. That is the embodiment of present
day innovation: utilizing incredible machines to transform everything into a consumable or
expendable asset. There's nothing fundamentally amiss with utilizing technology to
"enframe" nature along these lines. All things considered, human advancement expects assets
to endure. Notwithstanding, there's a peril when we take this line of thinking excessively far.
We may utilize technology to enframe ourselves.
What if some of us object to technology turning us into human resources?
Fortunately, there’s an alternative. Instead of seeing technology as the means to turn
everything (including ourselves) into resources, we can see technology as art.
All things considered, Accounting is viewed as an art since it requires the utilization
of abilities and imaginative judgment. One must be prepared in this order to have the option
to perform bookkeeping capacities well. Bookkeeping is likewise viewed as a science since it
is an assortment of information.
Technological improvements changed strategies for doing assignments inside the
extent of bookkeeping exercises and exchanges identified with bookkeeping was begun to
being helped out through electronic media. Development and advancement developing
quickly in data advances step by step have gotten computerized upheaval monetary, social
and social fields.
Our time is data period and when we recognize that bookkeeping is a data
framework, the way and procedures of executing organizations of endeavours have changed
with use of data advancements in undertakings and this affected bookkeeping intently. Need
of staying aware of changing states of bookkeeping drove teachers and specialists to new
interests. Empowering consideration of data period and technologic factors in training by
profiting by computerized assets just as hypothetical data in bookkeeping instruction gave in
colleges and creating an intelligent domain to keep understudy alert and leaning toward
instructive model in which data advancements are utilized is essential. So as to accomplish
that, understudies ought to be given to take target-driven bookkeeping courses and an
instructive request ought to be created in which understudies can assess and decipher data
past chronicle and make distinction through data and correspondence technologies.
One of computerized applications delivered on this issue is E-bookkeeping. E-
bookkeeping is view of empowering the board of all exercises all the more productively,
moderately, deftly than before through offices of web. All gatherings of the movement
(representative director client open body-colleague provider) are ongoing clients of the
framework and those sharing exceptional data in a flash. Bookkeeping staffs that can apply
this structure in ventures through bookkeeping instruction and build up this framework in
undertakings are required.
 In this way, nature of bookkeeping instruction is a factor affecting accomplishment
of representatives of undertakings and henceforth ventures straightforwardly. Re-organizing
of bookkeeping instruction and creating substance by considering current conditions are
important concerning train graduates having adequate quality to react necessities of the
period and.
Understanding innovation as enframing—transforming everything into a
consumable or expendable asset—overlooks a progressively comprehensive technology.
Technology, etymologically, implies imaginative aptitude or craftsmanship (from the
antiquated Greek word techne, from which we likewise get the words procedure and
methods): techne is the name not just for the exercises and abilities of the specialist, yet in
addition for expressions of the human experience of the brain and the expressive arts.
On the off chance that we consider technology to be workmanship, we run over an
important understanding. As a workmanship, technology is in excess of a thing. It's a
relationship too—a stylish and moral method of identifying with nature and society.
In the event that that knowledge is correct, at that point as we use technology to
remove assets, we ought to likewise ensure we're not perpetrating harm all the while—for
example, on nature or upon one another.
As a scholar, even philosophers like Heidegger was suggesting that, toward the day's
end, we can't separate innovation from human qualities. Furthermore, extremely, that is the
thing that the way of thinking of technology is about.
