We invent devices to solve our problems.

A wheeled cart makes it easier to move some heavy books.

A zipper holds your jacket closed and helps you stay warm.

A bus or car with a thousand moving parts takes you to school.People who design new technology are called engineers.

Engineers all over the world develop technology that we use in our homes, schools, and offices.

They use a set of steps called the design process to develop products and processes that solve problems.Engineers find solutions that improve communication, transportation, entertainment, and healthful living.People use technology to help them live long, healthy lives.

Medical technology includes vaccines and drugs, tools and equipment, and procedures.

Today, vaccines help prevent people from getting many illnesses in the first place.Devices such as X-ray machines help doctors to look for problems inside patients’ bodies.

Surgical procedures enable doctors to fix many problems inside the body.Technology also can cause problems.A medicine that cures one illness might cause another.

X-ray machines expose patients to radiation that can be harmful.

Surgical procedures can weaken the body and expose patients to the risk of infection.
