Abstract: | The nature of the design process and how to develop this skill in novice designers has been of considerable interest to technology
educators. The relationship between workplace and school-based design is one area in which a need for further research has
been identified by Hill and Anning (2001, International Journal of Technology and Design Education
11, 111–136). The research project described in this article had two aims. The first was to compare the workplace practice of
six experienced designers with their practice when working on a technological assessment task as part of a pre-service teacher
education programme. The second aim was to investigate their experience on teaching practicum in developing design skills
with secondary school students. Findings from the research are described and the paper concludes with a discussion of the
implications for teaching technology education. |
