Tech*Know: Integrated Instructional Materials for Technological Literacy

这项建议是为了创建20个教学单元，这些单元将以技术教育、解决问题的活动为基础，这些活动是技术学生协会(TSA)课程的一部分，并符合国际技术教育协会(ITEA)发布的技术扫盲标准。这些TSA活动将增加科学和数学内容。年级水平将是初中和高中。中学级别的单元包括网络空间追逐、Dragster设计挑战和飞行挑战。在高中阶段，单元包括电子系统、制造原型和无线电控制的运输。该项目将持续四年。材料将由TSA和非TSA教师在北卡罗来纳州、佛罗里达州、俄克拉何马州和弗吉尼亚州进行试点和实地测试。

This proposal is for the creation of 20 modules of instruction that would be based on technology education, problem-solving activities that are part of the curriculum of the Technology Student Association (TSA), and that are consistent with standards for technological literacy as published by the International Technology Education Association (ITEA). Science and mathematics content would be added to these TSA activities. The grade levels would be middle and high school. For the middle school level units include Cyberspace pursuit, Dragster design challenge and Flight challenge. At the high school level units include electronic systems, manufacturing prototype and radio-controlled transportation. The project will extend over four years. Materials will be piloted and field-tested by TSA and non-TSA teachers, in North Carolina, Florida, Oklahoma and Virginia.
