Inparticular we stress the “how” of technology rather than the “what” of technology. Manyschools are teaching students “what” computers can do – word processing, presentations,spreadsheets, database use, Internet searching, etc. (for a typical example, see North Carolina’sapproved K-12 Computer/Technology Skills Standards).7 While these are very important skillsto obtain in today’s digital world, engineers would not consider

Learners will work in groups to helpprovide depth in these areas. Requirements: • Each group will be responsible for developing materials relevant to the subject area to which its members have been assigned. The group will prepare a presentation that provides an overview of at least three professional issues relative to its subject area. For example, the Education and Training group members might concern themselves with the issue of the poor preparation of teachers to use technology

ROVs have been used in education as early as 1992 for the purpose of applying scienceand engineering knowledge, tools and techniques to the understanding and use of the marineenvironment 12 and to increase the number of skilled technicians to work in “strategic advanced-technology fields” 16. Educational programs that have used ROVs suggest ROV-basedcurriculum and activities can be a tool to enhance interest and improve perception regardingtechnology and engineering 9, 14.

In an attempt to answer these questions, we use the termepistemic diversity to represent the multi-dimensional nature of engineering knowledge, which ischaracteristically distinct from other sciences. The role of design in engineering and itssocio-historical “situatedness” are also discussed to shed light on the knowledge of engineeringand what engineers do

Focusing only on the “hands-on” aspects ofEngineering Technology can also lead to minimizing important topics of theoreticalunderstanding, professionalism, communication and breadth of vision, among others.Different models of the scope of engineering technology education exist.
