Exploring Construction Technology.
Wood, Jimmie
These materials for a six-unit course were developed to help teachers help students develop technological literacy, career exploration, and problem-solving skills relative to the construction industry. The six units include an overview of construction, construction safety, design and planning, construction preparation, construction processes, and project completion. The first section is designed to teach teachers how to use the materials and includes an explanation of instructional elements, an instructional-task analysis for each unit, and a list of 15 references. The instructional elements for the units include objectives, suggested activities, a list of supplemental resources, information sheets, transparency masters, assignment sheets, job sheets, tests, and test answers. Some elements, such as the information sheets, include photographs, diagrams, and line drawings. (CML)
