I teach technology at a public high school in Mississippi. At the beginning of the school year, we had two working Windows 95 computers and no technology equipment at all. Those are the conditions in which students at my school have learned about technology for the past several years. Thanks to the generosity of a local university, we now have twelve old but functional computers, comprising a working lab. Still, we have no technology equipment. In lieu of injecting hot plastic into a mold for manufacturing, designing and racing a car powered by carbon dioxide for transportation, and taking medical measurements using a pulse oximeter for biomedical technologies - learning technology hands-on - my ninth graders learn ABOUT technology by completing worksheets.
