Abstract: | This paper describes, chronologically, the deliberations of a school staff in their decision-making to place technology education
in their school. The outcome of these deliberations is a curriculum model whereby objectives of technology awareness, technological
literacy, technological capability and transferable skills are integrated with all subjects in the school. The desired outcome
is that students at this school will gain a technological education by, for example, attending classes in English, Home Economics,
Mathematics, Social Studies, Science and Art. The implementation process is ongoing, is being evaluated and has already experienced
senior staff changes and industrial disruption without loss of vigour or intent.
Specializations: diagnosis of student learning and teaching for conceptual change, technology education, curriculum evaluation. |
