"I would highly recommend the Handbook of Technology Education, for anyone looking to get a "true" global picture how technology education is practiced around the world. Divided into four major sections, the handbook looks at conceptualizing technology education, technology education in the curriculum, pedagogy for technology education, and technology, education, and society as seen through the lens of 35 contributors, representing 28 institutions, from 14 countries spanning 5 continents." --Edward M. Reeve, Professor Emeritus in Technology and Engineering Education, Utah State University, USA; Senior STEM-Ed. Specialist, Southeast Asian Ministers of Education Organization (SEAMEO), Thailand "In this handbook, leading scholars explore past, current and future developments in Technology Education. In a time when technology education is in decline, this book offers refreshing views on the rationale for technology education. The chapters are responsive to a broad range of stakeholder needs in Technology education. " --Nicolaas Blom, Lecturer of Technology Education, University of Limerick, IrelandAbout the Author
