How Technology Teachers Understand Technological Knowledge
Norström, Per
International Journal of Technology and Design Education, v24 n1 p19-38 Feb 2014
Swedish technology teachers' views of technological knowledge are examined through a written survey and a series of interviews. The study indicates that technology teachers' understandings of what constitutes technological knowledge and how it is justified vary considerably. The philosophical discussions on the topic are unknown to them. This lack of a proper framework for what constitutes technological knowledge and how it is justified might affect both how curricula are interpreted and how pupils' knowledge is assessed.
