Technological Literacy for All
A Rationale and Structure for the Study of Technology
The 2006 edition of Technological Literacy for All: A Rationale and Structure for the Study of Technology is a major rewrite of Technology for All Americans: A Rationale and Structure for the Study of Technology (ITEA, 1996) that enhances and updates the original edition considerably. It provides much more explanation of what technology and technological literacy are as well as why everyone needs to be technologically literate. This edition provides a logical transition from the 10 universals (processes, knowledge, and contexts) generated in the first edition into the 20 standards found in ITEA’s (ITEEA’s) Standards for Technological Literacy (2000/2002/2007). Also included in this new edition are sections on the teaching of technology in Grades K–12 and beyond. 50 pages, 2006. (Download)
