Grobler, Rina; Ankiewicz, Piet – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2022
The continual trend of the declining number of prospective student teachers in technology education necessitated a revisit and investigation of the entrance requirement (for technology teacher education) of having studied technology as a school subject. Subsequently a small scale, longitudinal, quasi-experimental research project was adopted with…

Hallström, Jonas; Klasander, Claes – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2017
Technological systems are included as a component of national technology curricula and standards for primary and secondary education as well as corresponding teacher education around the world. Little is known, however, of how pupils, students, and teachers conceive of technological systems. In this article we report on a study investigating…

Su, Xun; Ding, Bangping – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2023
Although there are some researches conducted about students' conceptions of technology, little research has been conducted to reveal the primary school students' conceptions concerning technology in China. This research investigated Chinese primary school students' (aged 9-12) conceptions of technology as regards their understanding of (a) the…

van As, Francois – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2019
Learners today need more than the core subjects offered at school to be successful in the twenty-first-century. By involving technology student teachers in activities that are authentic to technological practice, as teachers, they should be able to provide stimulating and relevant learning for learners ("Turnbull in Int J Technol Des…

Fox-Turnbull, Wendy – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2019
This article describes a study undertaken in New Zealand, England and Sweden and is based on the use of a tool developed by the researcher as a professional development and teaching tool in technology education for teachers of students between four and six years of age. The aim of the research was to investigate teachers' views of the…

Goreth, Sebastian; Vollmer, Christian – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2023
In Germany, there is a shortage of skilled workers in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) and especially in technology with declining interest in technology and with supposedly fewer teachers in technology education in the next 20 years. The present study examined whether students' interest in STEM is dependent…

Svenningsson, Johan – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2020
A central issue when measuring students' attitudes toward an object is the children's understanding of that object, in this case, technology. Studies have shown that schoolchildren often describe technology narrowly as different kinds of technological objects; more specifically, modern electrical objects. This may mean that we have been measuring…

Citrohn, Björn; Stolpe, Karin; Svensson, Maria – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2023
In this study, we aim to investigate activities using models in a design project in three technology classrooms. Activities that use models are important for students' development of knowledge and skills connected to the design process. Nevertheless, few empirical studies have thus far examined how models and modelling are used in a classroom…

Buckley, Jeffrey; O'Connor, Adrian; Seery, Niall; Hyland, Tomás; Canty, Donal – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2019
The educational significance of eliciting students' implicit theories of intelligence is well established with the majority of this work focussing on theories regarding entity and incremental beliefs. However, a second paradigm exists in the prototypical nature of intelligence for which to view implicit theories. This study purports to instigate…

Firat, Mehmet – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2017
Knowledge of technology is an educational goal of science education. A primary way of increasing technology literacy in a society is to develop students' conception of technology starting from their elementary school years. However, there is a lack of research on student recognition of and reasoning about technology and technological artifacts. In…

Murphy, Steve – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2020
The rise of STEM education, and the twenty first century skills movement, and the increasingly technologically driven nature of our world, has pushed technology education to the fore in recent times. Technology education faces a range of equity issues and there has been a particular focus on gender issues. This study considers two less explored…

Svenningsson, Johan; Höst, Gunnar; Hultén, Magnus; Hallström, Jonas – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2022
When studying attitudes toward technology education, the affective attitudinal component has primarily been the focus. This study focuses on how the affective, cognitive and behavioral attitudinal components of technology education can be incorporated using a two-step survey: the traditional PATT-questionnaire (PATT-SQSE) and the recently…

Lind, Johan; Pelger, Susanne; Jakobsson, Anders – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2022
The purpose of this study is to explore whether, and if so how, a design activity could encourage students to express and develop knowledge on emerging technology in relation to issues about sustainability. Several researchers have asserted that, in today's technologically dependent society, it is important to be able to control technology and…

Lind, Johan; Pelger, Susanne; Jakobsson, Anders – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2019
Technology is a compulsory subject at Swedish elementary schools and, according to the syllabus, helps students develop their ability to examine different technological solutions and reason how these solutions affect society, environment, and humans. An important challenge for educational research is to analyse and understand the consequences and…
