Teaching Design and Technology at Key Stages 1 and 2

  • Gill Hope - Canterbury Christ Church University, UK


June 2006 | 224 pages | Learning Matters
Ofsted continues to identify weaknesses in this subject, while many primary, non-specialist trainees lack confidence in the area. Linked to the new (2007) Standards for QTS and the DATA Tier 1 competencies, this book is for trainees who have had less than 20 hours training in design and technology but are required to teach the subject during school placements and once qualified. This clear, jargon-free text explains the key concepts and curriculum requirements, without assuming prior expertise or advanced levels of understanding, making this book a sound basic introduction.

Index

"The mixture of tasks, intellectual and physical, is very good, since it recognises the diversity of learning within technology education" (Lecturer, University of Aberdeen)


There are very few books which give a clear overview of Design and Technology in the primary school. This book achieves this and is a useful reference text for any primary practitioner.

There are very few books about teaching design and technology and this is a useful addition. Some good coverage of planning and management issues along with sections that will help students to understand what the subject involves.
