Purpose of Technology Education
The purpose of technology education is the
development of technological literacy for
all students.
Technological literacy is the ability to use,
manage, understand, and assess technology.
“With the growing importance of
technology to our society, it is
vital that students receive an
education that emphasizes
technological literacy.”
(ITEA, 2000, vii)
