Description

For the past 15 years, Japan has changed in to a post-modern society, and the role played in the character building of a child or a student on the basis of the new educational paradigm in technology education has been discussed. This paper describes technological literacy, the developmental stage of students, makes a comparison with a numbers of foreign countries, and look at the relationship between technology education and other disciplines. The schema theory, which constitutes a knowledge network on the basis of cognitive psychology, was discovered as a mechanism of learning in technology education, and was posited as the basic principle for designing activities. Furthermore, a practice that employed the learning model of social constructivism was introduced. Consequently, the learning module, which can enhance technological experience, was proposed. Also, the students' mental situation in the production of artifacts was examined, and the evaluation method for student's interest, motivation and attitude was provided.
