History of Industrial Technology Education in
Turkey

• In Turkey, first institutional examples of
  education of teachers were seen in 1850s oriented
  towards general education. In 1930s, these were
  followed by teacher schools which were intended
  to educate teachers in vocational education
  field. The first educational institute aimed at
  educating manpower directly in the field of TE
  was founded in 1974.

3
History of Industrial Technology Education in
Turkey

• 1979-1980 Higher School for Teachers of
  Industrial Arts was formed of three departments,
  namely Work and Technical Education, Home
  Economics and Business Administration. On the
  other hand, just a short time after foundation of
  the institution originally assigned to perform 3
  years of education for an associate degree,
  education period was extended to 4 years to
  educate teachers of higher quality for an
  undergraduate degree

4
History of Industrial Technology Education

• The school that kept on serving with
  above-mentioned structure until 1982, was
  reconstituted at the same year as Technology
  Education Department affiliated with the
  Vocational Education Faculty of Gazi University,
  parallel to rearrangements in higher education
  system and was restructured as Faculty of
  Industrial Arts Education in 1982 with the Law
  No.3837.

5
History of Industrial Technology Education

• According to the academic organization
  constituted within the frame of this
  restructuring, Faculty is formed of five
  departments that comprise twenty divisions.
• Departments namely

GRADUATE PROGRAMS (M.S. and Ph.D.)

• Many graduates continue their education to
  advance their careers. Master Degree and
  Doctorate degree programs in Industrial
  Technology Education enable the continued
  technical and professional growth of technology
  education teachers. Numerous graduate
  activity-based educational workshops furnish
  professional development to teachers on
  contemporary and innovative topics. The programs
  are open to all graduates of Industrial
  Technology Education as well as graduates from
  Engineering and Technical Education and Training
  Programs.

Ph.D. program

• Department of Industrial Technology has also
  Ph.D. program for advanced studies in Industrial
  Technology and Technology Education. The maximum
  duration for Ph.D. programs is 6 years. Minimum
  21 semester credit courses should be succeeded.
  Before the beginning of Ph.D. thesis, the student
  should pass a formal sufficiency exam (written
  and oral) and should have proficiency in foreign
  language. Afterwards, an advisory committee is
  established to evaluate the students scientific
  performance in every 6 months during which the
  study is conducted till the degree is received.
  The advisory committee includes the supervisor
  and 2 other academicians from the related area of
  the Ph.D. research. During this period, students
  enroll 3 semester hours of credits for each
  semester he/she is conducting the Ph.D. studies.

AN INTRODUCTION TO TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION (Colorado
State University)

• Technology education students perform hands-on
  laboratory projects to explore the concepts
  presented in classroom presentations. Course work
  develops students' problem-solving skills and
  increases their technological literacy. Typical
  classroom activities might include things like
  Building a solar collector out of used aluminum
  cans researching lineage and development of
  technical areas, tools or machines producing a
  television commercial using videotape planning
  and developing an enterprise to produce a
  product constructing a scale model bridge, then
  assessing its strength by destructively testing
  it using a computer with graphics or computer
  aided drafting designing, building, wiring,
  programming and operating a small robot
  exploring how a laser works and its limitations.

Colarodo State University

• Classroom activities in a typical technology
  education program focus on students
  understanding of technology and its role in our
  lives during the final years of the 20th Century.
  Technology education classes help students to
  know and appreciate the importance of technology
  while applying tools, materials, processes and
  technical concepts safely and efficiently.
  Students uncover and develop individual talents
  using problem-solving techniques developing their
  creative abilities. Technology education prepares
  students to adjust to changing environments and
  apply what they have learned in other school
  subjects, while becoming wiser consumers and
  students who will be able to make informed career
  choices.

29
AN INTRODUCTION TO TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION (Colorado
State University)

• The key words in technology education are
  action-based words, like Creating, inventing,
  solving, planning, experimenting, and producing.
  In the technology education laboratory, students
  expand their creativity and problem-solving
  abilities as they explore different areas of
  technological society. Students from all walks of
  life need to study technology whether or not they
  plan to attend college. Problem-solving, career
  orientation and learning for tomorrow's adaptive
  environment are the cornerstones of technology
  education. Technology education focuses on
  developing creativity and problem-solving skills,
  concepts that will not become obsolete, skills
  that will be needed throughout life regardless of
  what career or job one selects.

30

• In Biology and Chemistry classes students learn
  about the natural world. In
  technology classes, students learn how humankind
  has adapted to the natural world for our use and
  enjoyment. Technology education does not prepare
  students for specific careers but provides an
  introduction and foundation for many.

31
AN INTRODUCTION TO TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION (Colorado
State University)

• Technology education is typically taught at all
  three levels of primary and secondary education
  in America. The goal of technology education in
  elementary schools is to provide learning
  reinforcement to contribute to the student's
  personal development and technological awareness.
  The goals of middle school or junior high school
  Technology Education programs is orientation and
  exploration, and to assist students in making
  informed and meaningful educational and
  occupational choices. Technology education at the
  high school level builds upon the material
  learned in the junior high or middle school give
  the student the opportunity to build problem
  solving and creativity skills.

32
AN INTRODUCTION TO TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION (Colorado
State University)

• All technology education programs should Develop
  insights and understanding of technological
  society provide instruction which develops
  students' problem solving and decision making
  abilities reinforce basic skills and relate the
  content of technology to other school subjects
  get input from local industry and business
  executives and other consultants provide an
  emphasis on improving students' ability in making
  informed career choices provide a foundation for
  more advanced programs in technology education
  and, prepare students for lifelong learning in a
  technological society. "Technology Education is a
  basic and fundamental study for all persons,
  regardless of education or career goal."

33
AN INTRODUCTION TO TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION (Colorado
State University)

• The last decade has been a time of change in our
  field. Industrial arts has transitioned into
  technology education throughout the world. This
  transformation has meant changes in the
  relationship of the field with the school, the
  community, and students. In making this change
  the profession has kept the traditional strength
  of the curriculum area -- hands-on, action-based
  curricula -- while altering the content,
  methodologies and strategies so that they are in
  keeping with the needs of today's society and the
  future. As the content area of the field has
  become broader, teachers dedication to teaching
  has become more intense.

Purdue University

• Technology Education
• The Technology Education program is designed to
  prepare students for a teaching career in
  secondary schools. The transformation to
  technology education continues to provide all
  students with basic knowledge and skills needed
  for the next millennium. The Technology Education
  program is accredited by the National Council for
  the Accreditation of Teacher Education ( NCATE )
  and the Indiana Professional Standards Board (
