Format:Paperback
I have found this text to be very useful in teaching Design in our Technology Education clases in the United States. The text is logically written in 9 chapters that covers all topics taught in public schools today. Many ideas can be developed by the inclusion of student made example projects. Each page contains either clear photographs or carefully done drawings explaining the concepts that we want children to understand. I can't say enough about how pleased I was to find this book to use with my students.

Fantastic book! A "must-buy" for books in its class! 1 May 1999
By bjfurman@email.sjsu.edu - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Design and Technology is really a splendid book!

The author has done a masterful job at clearly explaining and illustrating the design process and a core set of enabling technologies that underlie product design and manufacturing.

The book is really aimed at junior high school and high school students, but I've even used pieces of it with undergraduate mechanical engineers!

The book includes practical project ideas and examples of how these fundamental technological concepts are applied in real life.

I highly recommend this book to teachers at all levels, to parents who would like to encourage budding young engineers or scientists, or to anyone interested in finding out how things work.
