Compléter FIRST CANON READINGVersion en ligne This ludical activity evaluates the first reading from Canon Book: National Academy Of Engineering. The Engineer Of 2020: Visions Of Engineering In The New Century. Washington DC. 2004 par Lena Prieto 1 1 . A scenario is a tool for ordering one ? s perceptions about future environments in which today ? s decisions might be played out . 2 . We imagine that the new ideas and discoveries in , biology , , and mathematics are leading to a revolutionary " moment " where we will reconceptualize and reperceive reality . We have been here before . 3 . Scientific advances often rely on the of new tools to open new arenas for exploration . 4 . Today new scientific are leading to profound insights into the realities of nature . 5 . The most important new tool , however , has been the . It has given us the ability to create remarkably faithful of phenomena like turbulent flow and complex chemical reactions . It has allowed us to study very large numbers of , millions instead of dozens . 6 . The Internet , of course , was primarily a tool for accelerating scientific communication . It used to be that the of research involved a long cycle of peer review , publishing , challenging , retesting , publishing , and so on . It was a process that took months or even years . Today an is conducted in the morning , and the results can be on the by lunchtime . 7 . Part of what makes one imagine that a is coming is that fundamental changes are developing across many disciplines . Here the focus is on physics , , and chemistry , but many others could be covered . Furthermore , they are feeding on each other . 8 . We would have remarkable new capabilities to new devices and new materials in entirely ecologically benign ways . We might even have new clean sources .
