Doyle, Andrew; Seery, Niall; Gumaelius, Lena; Canty, Donal; Hartell, Eva – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2019
Since first conceived, the concept of pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) has attracted much attention. Despite being lauded by educationalists as the unique knowledge base of teachers, research on the concept over the past 30 years has yet to result in a universally accepted definition being presented. Much of the contentions surrounding the lack…

Herold, Jean-Francois; Ginestie, Jacques – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2011
In France, project activities figure predominantly in technology education. The general idea behind learning based on project activity is to allow the pupil to get involved in the activity in question, with the pupil tackling real situations rather than ones of an abstract nature. But too often, we notice that the pedagogical strategies used by…

De Vries, Marc J. – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 1997
The methodological approach to technology education is illustrated by the case study of the development Active Matrix Liquid Crystal Displays in a small Dutch company. Problems emerge when this development is not dealt with according to nature of technologies involved. In technology education such insights can be used to prevent practices in which…
