The document discusses the role of science and technology in Philippine nation building over three time periods - pre-colonial, colonial, and post-colonial. In the pre-colonial period, early Filipinos developed farming, medicine, transportation and impressive engineering like rice terraces. During the colonial period, the Spanish and Americans modernized infrastructure and established education and science agencies. In the post-colonial period, Philippine presidents continued advancing science and technology through new agencies, most notably by Ferdinand Marcos.

Role of Science and Technology in Nation Building
The development of science and technology in the Philippines has already come a long way. Many significant inventions and discoveries have been accomplished by or attributed to Filipinos. The following time periods show the development of science and technology in the world: ✓Pre-Colonial Period ✓Colonial Period ✓Post-Colonial Period ILO: Discuss the role of science and technology in Philippine nation building

✓Pre-Colonial Period Scientific and technological development in the Philippines began in the pre-colonial period. Even before the Spaniards came to the Philippine islands, early Filipino settlers were already using certain plants and herbs as medicines. Systems of farming and animal raising were also implemented. Moreover, early Filipinos had also developed different modes of transportation, whether terrestrial or maritime.

✓Pre-Colonial Period A complicated engineering feat was achieved by the natives of the Cordilleras when they built rice terraces by hand. Through these terraces, the people were able to cultivate crops on the mountainsides in cold temperatures. They incorporated an irrigation system that uses water from the forests and mountain tops to achieve an elaborate fishing system. The rice terraces of the Cordilleras, which are still functional, show the innovative and ingenious way of the natives to survive in an otherwise unfriendly environment.

✓Colonial Period Colonization by the Spaniards provided the Philippines with modern means of construction. Walls, roads, bridges, and other large infrastructures were built using some of the engineering skills and tools brought by the Spaniards. In addition, the Spanish government developed health and education systems that were enjoyed by the principalia class. The American occupation modernized almost all aspects of life in the Philippines. They established a government agency, the Bureau of Science, for the sole purpose of nurturing development in the field of science and technology.

✓Post-Colonial Period After achieving independence from the colonizers, the Philippines, under different administrations, continued to pursue programs in science and technology. Each leadership had its own science and technology agenda. One of the presidents who ushered in advancements in science and technology was former president and dictator Ferdinand Marcos. Under his term, many agencies in science and technology were established and strengthened, including the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) in place of the abolished Weather Bureau; the National Academy of Science and Technology Authority (originally established in 1958 as the National Science and Development Board and now the Department of Science and Technology), among others.
