Teaching Design and Technology in Secondary Schools by Gwyneth Owen-Jackson Pdf

Teaching Design and Technology in Secondary Schools begins by providing information on the nature, purpose and development of design and technology in schools. An aptitude for design and technology combines practical skills and theoretical knowledge, and the book addresses what this means in practice. Design and technology takes in work with such diversity as resistant materials, textiles, food and systems and control, so attention is given to connections between these areas and what makes them 'design and technology'. Together, these articles comprise a stimulating and comprehensive overview of the issues and ideas surrounding this new, popular and exciting element of the secondary school curriculum. This book is the companion to Aspects of Teaching Secondary Design and Technology.

Teaching Design and Technology at Key Stages 1 and 2 by Gill Hope Pdf

Ofsted continues to identify weaknesses in this subject, while many primary, non-specialist trainees lack confidence in the area.

Teaching Design and Technology by John Eggleston Pdf

Design and technology is one of the fastest growth areas of the contemporary school curriculum. It is crucial to the national economy and to individual employment prospects. John Eggleston shows how this area of work has come to occupy a new and central place in the school curriculum, and highlights the higher status and a new identity now accorded to technology. He explores this new identity, its origins, its manifestations in classroom practice, and its possible futures. He pays particular attention to its role in the national curriculum, to assessment, to gender and race issues, and to management; and concludes with a number of invaluable case studies of school practice. This best-selling book has been fully revised in the light of the new orders for National Curriculum Design and Technology and will be essential reading for all trainee and practising teachers of design and technology.
