Mankind’s scientific advancement in the name of progress can be absolutely detrimental to the environment and all the living organisms, as we know it. During WWII, German scientists were secretly developing chemical weapons to be used on human beings. These chemicals after the war became very abundant in various forms (chemical structure) and were recommended to farmers as a pest control. The purpose of these lethal chemicals changed from disrupting the human nervous system to eradicating…

Robert A. Heinlein, a well-respected and notable science fiction short-story novelist, once said, “Everything is theoretically impossible, until it is done” (Robert). Many scientists have lived by this quote. Since the end of the 20th century, science has increased tremendously. From taking a man to the moon, to finding cures for detrimental diseases, scientists and their inventions have proven that human beings can do anything they set their minds to achieving. A new and highly talked about…

Religion, Reality, or Science Science and religion are two different aspects of life. They both have their optimistic values and teachings, and I am stuck in the middle. There are so many extensive and adequate theories that lead me to question my own beliefs and theological virtues. Based on history and facts, it seems like the two have been in conflict ever since the very beginning. Religion is a matter of faith and science is all about rationality and finding proof, and at times one outweighs…

Humans resemble flowers. Their soil is all the aspects of life, the stem is their durability and the petals represent their knowledge of self-worth. When people do not understand or value who they are, they become a shell of themselves. Perhaps more like a wilting flower. They curl their petals in blocking the sunlight unknowingly stunting their growth process making themselves weaker. I was once the wilting flower. Succumbing to everyone's opinion of how I should be left me empty. My petals…

According to Sanderson & Huffman (2017), technostress is the anxiety you feel due to overexposure or the interaction that you have in your everyday life with technology. There are times when we all get addicted or stressed out when it comes to technology and the devices that we use. The stress comes from having constant access to a device in which you never unplug from the device. Below I have listed methods that I can use in order to change how technostress is impacting my life. Above in my…

Animal testing has been around for a long time and sense we have such advanced technology you would think that there would be a better way to test on the animals. It is a hot debate on whether or not Animal testing should be banned or is positive to the world medically and cosmetically. Although some may say that animal testing is not harmful and helpful after hearing my reasons you will understand that animal testing should be banned. Animal testing is cruel and harmful, not accurate and…

The purpose of this paper is to address the changes in society caused by the progression of technology. Throughout the paper, I will be applying sociological theories — specifically conflict theory — and terms — such as culture, technology, social change, societies, and social networking — to a few news articles based on technology’s new role in society. The United States is a postindustrial society, which means it is a more technologically advanced society — compared to Industrial, Agrarian,…

Much like all of society in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and the king in “Antigone,” society in Megadeth’s “Symphony of Destruction” also follows along with the theme of doing what everyone else does, rather than thinking for themselves. They all “dance like marionettes swaying to the symphony” without giving a second thought as to why they are doing this. Similarly, in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, society has many beliefs towards what they feel is correct such as slavery, keeping…

After watching all of the available videos for the Field Experience Summary, I chose High School Biology, Part 2 as my favorite video. I selected this video because the teacher displays great knowledge of her students, she has provided wonderful materials for her activity, and she has the standards and objectives clearly stated on the whiteboard. In addition to the reasons previously stated, I chose this video because she covered a topic in my subject area. What initially intrigued me to…

After finishing one-year studying in university, I discovered that Applied Mathematics was the ultimate major for me. The first-year experience provides me a substantial number of insights for my future goals and plans. By obtaining plentiful assistance and support from my academic advisor and the dean of undergraduate study, I declared my major. I cannot deny the outstanding teaching resources I received as a student. Case Western Reserve University is an ideal university for the students who…
