, QUESTION 1
Consider the following time periods:
• Renaissance
• 20th Century
• 4th Industrial revolution
In each time period, a) write a paragraph of ten lines based on your understanding of the
differences of the time periods. b) Locate the time period in your own context.
- Renaissance:
The printing press, linear awareness, patent law, double shell domes, and bastion forts seem to
be just a few of the profound technological innovations that mark this period. The notebook
books of Renaissance artist-engineers like Taccola and Leonardo da Vinci include a
comprehensive understanding of the mechanical technologies at the time.
Locate the time period in your own context:
The cultural movement spanned the period roughly from the 14th to the 17th century.
- 20th Century:
Technology in the 20th century advanced quickly. Modern science and technology have
progressed as a result of developments of communications technologies, transportation
technology, broad scientific method instruction and application, and increasing research
funding. The technological discoveries directly related to military research and development may
have contributed to the speed at which some technologies, such as electronic computing,
developed.
Locate the time period in your own context:
The 20th century began on the 1st of January 1901, and ended on the 31st of December 2000. It
was the tenth and final century of the 2nd millennium.
- 4th Industrial revolution:
The Fourth Industrial Revolution makes "smart factories" possible, resulting in a world whereby
flexible global virtual and physical manufacturing systems interact with others. This makes it
feasible to completely modify products and establish new operating models.
Locate the time period in your own context:
The 21st Century.
