...phrases like, “the means or activity by which man seeks to change or manipulate his environment.” Term technology, is coined from two Greek words, technē, “art, craft,” and logos, “word, speech,” which in Greece means discourse on both applied and fine art. Development of human kind as seen through the theory of evolution of man is categorized into three distinct periods, the stone age, bronze age and the iron age. The stone age shows primitive tools which with time into the bronze age tends to get more sophisticated and later become more complex seen in the iron age. The changes involved in technological advancements of early man is attributed to the change in their mental ability, the changes in social behavior. (Netzley, 1998) This paper focuses on the chronological advancements in technology through the three phases of human evolution and how it influenced their daily lives. It reviews in general the social conditions in these periods, the dominant materials used, the sources of energy and power, with their applications to human lives and the changes that came with their continued use. (Tufnell, 1953) STONE AGE This is the earliest period of human development in accordance with the three periods of evolution. In this period of human evolution, man mainly used stone tools but also had some tools from organic materials. (Netzley, 1998) The stone age period is divided into...

...Integrate Science and Arts Process Skills in the Early Childhood Curriculum How can early childhood teachers help children think creatively, discover new possibilities, and connect their ideas? Integrate science and the arts in the curriculum! “The greatest scientists are also artists as well.” –Albert Einstein Kathy Morrison Art and science are intrinsically linked—the essence of both fields is discovery. Artists and scientists function systematically and creatively. Their knowledge, understanding, and outcomes are explored in hands-on studios or high-tech labs. In classrooms for all ages, integrating science and the visual arts offer children the latitude to think, discover, and make connections (Alberts, 2011). • Young children are also natural artists (Althouse, Johnson, & Mitchell, 2003). Most are delighted to participate in open-ended art activities, dramatic play, singing, and dancing. Young children paint, sculpt, sing, or dance in their own unique ways. They want to be involved in the visual and performing arts, to try new things, and to experiment with the familiar (Pinciotti, 2001). For young children, the process in science and art is much more important than whatever product may result (Stivers & Schudel, 2008). The fundamental science process skills for early childhood are to • • • • • observe, communicate, compare, measure, and organize (Sarquis, 2009). Art and science are intrinsically linked. Scientists and artists typically observe life from...

...fine arts in the life of a believer. Your paper should be 3-4 single-spaced pages in a Word file with Times New Roman, 12 point font. Make sure to include and cite your resources consistently (6-8 scholarly sources is suggested). Wikipedia is NOT a scholarly source. Submit your Final Paper as an attachment in Moodle. How You’ll Be Graded An excellent paper (90-100%) will deal with the following subjects: 1. What art is, is not, and the part God has designed it to play in the life and spiritual experience of every person – using the course material, the Scriptures, and scholarly outside sources. 2. Why it is important for believers to understand what artists are saying, and what tools to use in order to be accurate in our understanding, before accepting or rejecting the work of art. 3. What you intend to do in your own family going forward, to ensure that your children and grandchildren will come from a family where culture is understood and valued as part of every Christian’s experience. It is highly encouraged for a Christian to be involved in the world of art, but it is important that the Christian viewer has a good understanding of art before they become too involved or make false assumptions due to a lack of understanding. For example, nudity is present in a vast amount of art that was created in the past. One who is not properly educated on art cannot possibly comprehend what the artist is trying to say through his artwork or understand the tools that were...

Most of the hostels have table cloths that are imported into the country. The designs are derived from items or inspirations that do not relate to food stuffs Below are photographs of some of the exiting hotel table cloths.

From ancient and natural occurring volcanic glass to the beautiful and intricate art of today, glassblowing, and glass itself, have had a long and arduous path. To better understand glassblowing, it is essential to understand the development of glass, its history, and how the techniques used by artists have evolved throughout history. Man-made glass itself is an ancient art form that dates back to roughly 4000BC.
