Research and Practice in Technology Education: Perspectives on Human Capacity and Development

Year: 2018

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: The 2018 conference theme, ‘Research and Practice in Technology Education: Perspectives on Human Capacity and Development’ continues to maintain our focus on practice and ultimately enhancing the quality and experience of all Design and Technology pupils. This year, further sub-themes were developed to capture the imaginative, the make, and the impact of our subjects. Each day of the conference will reintroduce the conference sub-themes by highlighting the systemic challenges amplified when attempting to translate research into practice. These plenary sessions will provide useful perspectives and help frame future research discourse and enquiry. [FROM WELCOME ADDRESS BY DR NIALL SEERY]
