The Importance of an Education-Oriented Approach to Neo-Sadrian Logic and Epistemology in Defining Scientific Terms: a case study on 'Technology'

Objective: The Academic Community Has Long Been Grappling with The Chronic Issue of Establishing a Precise, Comprehensive, And Cohesive Definition of Technology and Some Scholars Even Consider Achieving Such a Definition Impracticable or Futile. The Purpose of This Study Was to Address This Challenge and Generate New Insights for Defining Technology. This Issue Has Prompted the Formulation of Three Research Questions: The Main Question:"Is It Possible to Come Up with A Precise, All-Encompassing, And Unified Definition of Technology?" And The Sub-Questions Are "How Does Logic Pinpoint and Evaluate the Deficiencies in Previous and Current Definitions of Technology?" And "How Can Logic Contribute to The Formulation of a Precise, Comprehensive, And Unified Definition of Technology?”.Methods: At First, A Systematic Review of Relevant Research Was Carried Out Via the Internet. Subsequently, various definitions of technology were evaluated based on the principles of definition in the disciplines of logic and epistemology within the Neo-Sadrian Twelver Shia Islamic tradition, employing deductive reasoning, and the responses were determined. In The End, A New Definition, Which Addressed the Shortcomings of Previous Definitions and Conformed to Logical and Epistemological Standards, Was Proposed.Results: The Study Indicated That achieving a precise, comprehensive, and unified definition of technology is possible through foundationalism.Conclusions: The Findings Can Bring About Positive Changes in The Attitudes, Social Behaviors, Educational Practices, And Learning of All Stakeholders Involved in Technology, Once They Acknowledge that technology is not separate from human existence, such insights can promote unity and facilitate positive utilization of technology.

Abstract

Objective: The Academic Community Has Long Been Grappling with The Chronic Issue of Establishing a Precise, Comprehensive, And Cohesive Definition of Technology and Some Scholars Even Consider Achieving Such a Definition Impracticable or Futile. The Purpose of This Study Was to Address This Challenge and Generate New Insights for Defining Technology. This Issue Has Prompted the Formulation of Three Research Questions: The Main Question:"Is It Possible to Come Up with A Precise, All-Encompassing, And Unified Definition of Technology?" And The Sub-Questions Are "How Does Logic Pinpoint and Evaluate the Deficiencies in Previous and Current Definitions of Technology?" And "How Can Logic Contribute to The Formulation of a Precise, Comprehensive, And Unified Definition of Technology?”.Methods: At First, A Systematic Review of Relevant Research Was Carried Out Via the Internet. Subsequently, various definitions of technology were evaluated based on the principles of definition in the disciplines of logic and epistemology within the Neo-Sadrian Twelver Shia Islamic tradition, employing deductive reasoning, and the responses were determined. In The End, A New Definition, Which Addressed the Shortcomings of Previous Definitions and Conformed to Logical and Epistemological Standards, Was Proposed.Results: The Study Indicated That achieving a precise, comprehensive, and unified definition of technology is possible through foundationalism.Conclusions: The Findings Can Bring About Positive Changes in The Attitudes, Social Behaviors, Educational Practices, And Learning of All Stakeholders Involved in Technology, Once They Acknowledge that technology is not separate from human existence, such insights can promote unity and facilitate positive utilization of technology.
