Technological Education
Abstract
In every phase of human progress during the past hundred years history has demonstrated the close vital connection which exists between education and technology. The phenomenal extension of scientific knowledge, with its application in every sphere of life to the raising of material standards, has spread the need for education in the sciences to an ever-increasing proportion of the population. The invention, design and production of goods and services demand, on the one hand, a thorough knowledge of underlying principles and, on the other, a knowledge of practical techniques and skill in carrying them out.
