The authors provide a vision of a K-12 technology education program and what it might achieve for America's schools. They explain how to construct a series of multi-year courses or course sequences that give students direct experience in designing products, structures, and systems to meet individual and social needs. They share classroom vignettes and specific examples of the ideas being discussed, and make the materials approachable to a wide audience--from classroom teachers to federal policymakers.
