-
Technology and Engineering Education encompasses a dynamic field that equips students with essential skills and knowledge related to technology, engineering, and problem-solving.
-
Curriculum Focus:
- Technology Education: This area emphasizes understanding and using technology effectively. Students learn about various tools, processes, and systems, including digital technologies, manufacturing, and communication.
- Engineering Education: It focuses on design, innovation, and problem-solving. Students engage in hands-on activities, explore engineering principles, and create solutions to real-world challenges.
-
Goals and Objectives:
- Foster critical thinking and creativity by encouraging students to design, build, and test prototypes.
- Develop technological literacy, enabling students to make informed decisions about technology use.
- Promote collaboration and communication skills through team-based projects.
- Cultivate an understanding of ethical, social, and environmental implications of technology.
-
Teaching Strategies:
- Project-Based Learning: Students work on open-ended projects, applying engineering principles to solve problems.
- Integration with STEAM: Technology and engineering education aligns with the arts, science, mathematics, and other STEM disciplines.
- Hands-On Activities: Labs, workshops, and design challenges provide practical experiences.
- Career Exploration: Students learn about diverse career paths in technology and engineering.
Technology and Engineering Education empowers students to become informed, innovative, and responsible global citizens.
