I bought this thinking that it was going to be full of 100 different ideas for teaching Design and Technology, I was wrong. Its not full of starters,plenary and gimmicks that have been written about before. This is more than 100 ideas. It has depth; it goes into more detail about the issues facing D&T teachers, discussing strategies and making you think about the purpose of D&T. As HOD I have found this very useful and believe all D&T teachers new and old should have a copy. I wish I had bought this earlier.
