What is Technology & Engineering Education?
Technology Education is a subject that enables students to become technologically literate. Going far beyond basic computer knowledge into a whole range of technological systems and ideas, Technology Education incorporates and complements science, mathematics, and other disciplines.
Technology education is an essential component of a comprehensive and experience-based science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) program. It develops technological literacy among students by demonstrating how mathematics and science is applied to the process of engineering design.
