environment for humans to become economically
stable.
Security technology is about changing the security
environment to suit the needs of human beings especially if they
work in the cities.

Humans play a limited role in any generation of
security technology.
Humans play a greater role only in the fourth
generation technology.
Humans are not required in the formation of
security technology.
Correct. Humans play a role in developing the
programmes in the fifth generation security technology. Refer to
study unit 4.
Incorrect. Humans play significant role in various
generation security technology. Refer to study unit 4.
Incorrect. Humans play significant role in various
generation security technology. Refer to study unit 4.
Incorrect. Humans play significant role in various
generation security technology. Refer to study unit 4.
What is part of the technologies of the self?
Prison cell @ Incorrect. The prison cell is not
part of t
biometric passports
closed circuit television
intrusion detection system
Incorrect. The prison cell is not part of technologies
of the self as it is external to the self and has no intimate
data about the subject in question. Refer to study unit 4.
Correct. This is part of technologies of the self as
the details of the subject are recorded in the biometric
passport itself on a microchip. Refer to study unit
4.
Incorrect. This is not part of technologies of self and
there appears to be no intimate data about the subject in
question. Refer to study unit 4.
Incorrect. This is not part of technologies of self and
in fact refers to technologies of object sensing. Refer to study
unit 4.
Foucault argues that technologies of self as
human-dislike producing technology to protect
themselves
Human-dislike conducting themselves in the most
ethical manner
human performative acts that are immoral because
of technology
humans produce their own ethical
self-understanding through engagement in the security
developmental processes.
Incorrect. Technologies of self allow humans to effect
regulations onto themselves. Refer to study unit 4.
Incorrect. Technologies of self allow humans to produce
their own ethical understanding. Refer to study unit 4.
Incorrect. This is not part of Foucault believes in
technologies of self. Refer to study unit 4.
Correct. This is part of Foucault believes in
technologies of self. Refer to study unit 4.
