Originally published in 1986, Technology in School is an ideas resource book designed specifically for Craft, Design and Technology teachers in schools. Packed with relevant and realistic suggestions for activities and fully illustrated throughout, it will also be of interest to science and primary teachers.

Technology education was one of the fastest growing areas in the curriculum during the 1980s, and appropriate resource material was constantly in demand. The material for this book was developed over four years and demonstrates how important elements of technology can be built into existing CDT programmes in a highly practical and down-to-earth way, frequently using simple, surplus, or waste materials.

The book is divided into four sections: Getting Technology into CDT, Manufacturing Technology, Product Modelling, and Electronics for Product Design. Each section addresses contemporary technological challenges in ways that are directly relevant to classroom work and cost-effective for schools.
