TEACHING DESIGN AND TECHNOLOGY 3E by Eggleston
Design and technology is crucial to the national economy and to individual employment prospects. This work shows how design and technology has come to occupy a new and central place in the school curriculum. The author highlights the higher status and 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 includes two entirely new chapters on the training of design and technology teachers and on design and technology in classroom practice.
John Eggleston is Professor of Education at Warwick University and Visiting Professor at Middlesex University and the University of Central England. He was founding editor of Design and Technology Teaching, is Vice Chair of the Design and Technology Association, Chair of the Young Electronic Design Awards and was Director of the Schools Council Project on Design and Technology.
