What is technology?
Technology is a significant part of general education which provides students an opportunity to learn about the theoretical and practical aspects of industry and technology, two basic elements of our society. It acquaints them with the history, growth, and development as well as materials, prodÂucts, and processes of industrial organizations. Technology helps develop in students an awareÂness and appreciation of tools and machines inÂvolved in past and present methods of production. It also emphasizes problem-solving experiences to help students become alert contributors and consumers and provides a means by which they can apply in meaningful situations the principles of science, mathematics, and other related subjects. |
