Foundations of Engineering and Technology -

. .

Résumé :
Foundations of Engineering & Technology is a comprehensive, contemporary high school text that focuses on the relationships between technology and multiple engineering disciplines. While covering the impacts of technology, technological systems, the history of technology, the applications of technology, and the designed world, the text also emphasizes engineering and design aspects by focusing on the engineering design process and problem-solving skills. Numerous student-friendly features provide practical examples of the impacts of technology and engineering on our world. STEM Applications, Engineering Design Challenges, and Technology Student Association (TSA) activities help students apply chapter content to real-world situations. The text covers a wide range of topics in various industries while still providing a detailed introduction to the core concepts of engineering and technology, allowing students to build a strong foundation and spark curiosity in a variety of different fields. This book is fully correlated to the ITEEA's Standards for Technological and Engineering Literacy and to YouScience's Engineering Technology exam standards. Each chapter includes an Essential Question that aligns to the Framework for P-12 Engineering Learning, designed by Advancing Excellence in P-12 Engineering Education (AE3) and the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) research collaborative, encouraging students to think critically about how the chapter concepts relate to a student's life....
