Technology in the School Curriculum: The Moral Dimension of Making Things.
Olson, John
Journal of Curriculum Studies, v29 n4 p383-90 Jul-Aug 1997
Criticizes the compartmentalization of educational practices into a hierarchy of general, vocational, and social. Argues for a more holistic integration of technology, vocation, and education reflecting a vision of lifelong learning and meaningful work. Discusses examples of this including the Scandinavian tradition of "Sloyd" (unification of education and work). (MJP)
