Philosophy of Education
In my classroom, students will strive to be the best person they can be while engaging
their brains and imaginations and working towards their goals. I believe there is a need for the
development of good attitudes not only in the classroom but in everyday life. Everyone in the
classroom deserves respect, students and teachers alike. We will practice our best manners
and work towards building good citizenship through developing our knowledge of empathy and
tact. Not everyone will succeed and success is not the same for every individual however,
failure is acceptable as long as we learn from it. The overall goal is a positive experience for
every individual in the classroom.
Philosophy of Technology & Engineering

Education
I believe that Technology Education is an integral part of all students education. The
best way to accomplish this is with standards based activities related to the Technological
world. Students who receive a combination of hands-on education and lecture based learning
covering all forms of technology, technological systems, and how they affect our world will be
better equipped to be productive citizens in todays society.

1. COURSE DESCRIPTION
A semester long introductory course for eighth grade students in the study of
technology and technological systems and how they are applied in the areas of
Communication, Manufacturing, Construction, Power/Energy/Transportation, and BioRelated technologies. This will include how these systems are organized, the resources
used, products produced, and their impact on society. The method of delivery for this
course is lecture and hands-on project based learning.
2. PURPOSE OF THE COURSE
The of this course is to provide students with hands-on project based learning that
introduces them to technology and technological systems as well as the design process.
Students will learn how systems works as well as the impact that make on society and
the designed world.

CHAPTER 1 KEY TERMS KEY
Artifacts- objects made by humans

Bronze Age-the stage in human history that took place after the Stone Age. During this time,
farming developed, villages and towns started to appear, and copper and copper-based metal
tools replaced stone tools.
Civilized conditions- societies in which humans make tools, grow crops, engineer materials, and
develop transportation systems.
Development- the work technologists do by building products and structures to make lives
better.
Dynamic process- a process that is constantly changing or causing change
Humanities- a type of knowledge that describes the relationships between and among groups
of people.
Industrial revolution- the historical period from 1750 to 1850, when tremendous changes in
technology occurred. Many machines and devices were invented, including the steam engine
and the telegraph.
Information age- occurring after the Industrial Revolution, this time period places most
importance on information processing and cooperative working relations between production
workers and managers.
Iron age- the historical period beginning around 1200 BC. During this period, iron and steel
became the primary materials for tools. Trade, transportation, and communication all
improved, and civilization expanded.
Middle ages- the historical period beginning around 400 AD. It is known for its various
upheavals, as tribes continually fought each other for territory, but technology still progressed.
One of the major inventions of this time was printing from moveable type, developed by
Johann Gutenberg in 1445.
Primitive conditions- conditions determined by nature. Primitive societies were dependent on
nature to provide food, shelter, and clothing.
Profit- the amount of money left over after all the expenses of a business have been paid.
31
Renaissance- the historical period that began in the early 1300s in Italy and lasted until 1600.
This period is known for new ideas in art, literature, history, and political science, but
technological developments such as the calculator and the telescope, also occurred.
Research- the work scientists do by gathering information to try to explain why something
exists or happens in a certain way.
Science-knowledge of the natural world
Stone age- the earliest period in history. First, simple stone tools were used to cut and pound
vegetables and cut meat from animal carcasses; later, pointed stone hunting tools were
developed. Humans also learned how to harness fire for heating, cooking, and protection.
Technologically literate- having the understanding and ability to direct new technology.

Have the kids touch and hold the different pieces of technology. Ask what their impressions are.
How would our lives be different if these technologies had not been invented?
Would we live in the types of houses we do or have the tools we do?

AGES OF TECHNOLOGY
Eras in History
Stone Age- (750,000 years ago; to about 4,000BC)
During this age, tools were made from stone and, later, bone, antler, and wood.
Bronze Age- (4000BC to 1000BC)
During this age, tools were made from copper and, later, bronze and alloy of
copper and tin.
Iron Age- (1000BC to present)
Beginning about 1000 BC, most tools were made from wrought iron; beginning in
the twelfth century, most tools were made from iron; then, during the middle of
the nineteenth century, most tools were made from steel.

thinking about it you went through the design process. You were a designer.
The design process is a loop
It is used to solve a problem
Design briefs describe clearly what is needed from the solution.
Talk about the 8 steps of the process

their feet?
Begin by asking if everyone is familiar with both US customary and SI systems of measurement
Discuss similarities and differences between the two systems
Review qualities that are measured and the units they are measured by (chart, pg 159)
Compare standard measurement tools vs precision measurement tools

Demonstration:
Measure different objects in the room with the different measurement tools
Measurement describes size & shape, mass, time, temperature, number of particles, electrical
current, and light intensity
It involves comparing physical characteristics to established standards

Your city council is holding a photography contest to bring awareness to the
different types of pollution in your community.
Design and shoot a series of photographs depicting examples of pollution you
find in your community. The pictures should communicate the message of how
dire of a problem pollution is for the environment.
1. Gather information about the history of photojournalism from library and
internet research
2. Gather information about different types of pollution from library and internet
research.
3. Develop a layout that describes the theme of the shoot and sketch possible
layouts for each shot.
4. Use basic design principles to layout each shot to convey the best message
possible.
5. Make a display to show the finished shots and communicate your message.

For each discipline below select an appropriate concept and choose and activity to support the
theme. Also plan an assessment strategy for evaluating student outcomes. Keep in mind that you are
integrating the theme across as many disciplines as possible. (i.e., science, math, etc). Be creative and
innovative! Discuss this interdisciplinary theme plan with other teachers.
Technology concept: Photographic communication

Activity: Design and shoot a series of photographs to accurately convey a given message to an intended audience.

photographs depict the correct message.
Science concept: Light and other electromagnetic waves

Activity: Experiment with prisms and lens to examine the different hues of wavelengths and the different paths
light can travel.
VERTICAL INTERGRATION
Assessment: Define the following terms: amplitude, wavelength, direction, transmit, reflect, absorb
Mathematics concept:
Unit conversions
Activity: Convert the wavelengths of the visible spectrum from nanometers to centimeters.
Assessment: Check your work with a calculator.

Activity: Prepare a one page paper on a photojournalism pioneer and how their work changed the way society
saw events of the time.
Assessment: Create a photojournalism timeline displaying photojournalists and the events they covered that
changed the views of the world to present to the class.
Language Arts concept: Descriptive writing

Activity: Write captions for the back of your photographs describing what kind of pollution it depicts and
where in the community it was found.
