| Abstract | "Design and technology is a relatively new subject compared to more traditional subjects and during its brief existence it has garnered widespread debate in schools. This book aims to explore some of these debates and challenge the reader with new perspectives about the subject by presenting and questioning arguments about the purpose, content and place of design and technology in the school curriculum. It will encourage the reader to critically reflect on their own beliefs and practices to reach informed judgements and perspectives that will affect how they teach and think about design and technology. Exploring the major issues that design and technology teachers encounter in their professional lives as well as introducing new topics they may never have considered before, this comprehensive second edition has been fully updated with 16 chapters focusing on emerging and enduring debates, including: How do we do race in Design & Technology What's so special about design and technology anyway? Design cognition in design and technology classrooms Exploring the potential of feedback in the creative processes of a D&T classroom Does food fit in Design and Technology? The role of making in D&T With its combination of expert opinion and fresh insight, Debates in Design and Technology Education is the ideal companion for any student or practicing teacher engaged in initial training, continuing professional development or Masters level study"-- Provided by publisher. |
