- Summary
- The authors provide a vision of what a coherent K-12 technology education program might look like and what it might achieve. They explain how to construct a series of multiyear courses or course sequences that give students direct experience in designing products, structures, and systems to meet individual and social needs. Their goal is to help students develop an understanding of the interactions between society and technology that have influenced our civilization, and to familiarize students with the technologies they encounter at home and at work.
