Beschreibungen/Notizen

• With the increasing technology orientation in modern societies Technology Education is gaining more and more importance. It should help in developing an understanding of technology as well as skills and self-concepts to deal with technology. However, there is a lack of knowledge in how Technology Education operates and what its outcome will be. Thus, research work has to be done in different fields of Technology Education. Upcoming academics of the CETE network have dedicated themselves to such research questions. The Center of Excellence for Technology Education (CETE) is an international network consisting of six Universities (University of Missouri; University of Cambridge; University of Luxembourg; University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland; Delft University of Technology and University of Duisburg-Essen) with the mission of development work. One aim of CETE is to support the qualification of young academics in the research field of Technology Education. Thus, the present book will attempt to resolve the lack of research in Technology Education by presenting the research work of upcoming academics. In this way, CETE contributes to its development work by extending the research results in Technology Education as well as by supporting young academics. Beside two basic articles about Technology Education research, there are different studies and their results presented. Three different drafts of studies offer future prospects for research results.
• de Vries, Marc J. (Delft University of Technology, Netherlands): Marc de Vries is Professor at the Faculty of Applied Sciences at the Delft University of Technology of the Netherlands. His main interest is to connect reflections on technology (in the philosophy of technology) and teaching about technology (technology, design and engineering education).
• Fletcher, Stefan (University of Duisburg-Essen, Germany): Stefan Fletcher has been holding the chair for Engineering and its Didactics with the collaboration of Martin Lang at University of Duisburg Essen's faculty for Engineering Sciences since 2008. At his department in Essen, Prof. Dr. Fletcher set up a video and eye tracking lab and does research in the field of teaching methodology for engineering on learning processes as well as in the field of computerised teaching and learning media. He is a member of the executive board for the Centre of Teacher Training (ZLB) at the University of Duisburg-Essen. Further, he is a member of the scientific advisory board for the Journal of Technical Education (JoTEd).
• Kruse, Stefan (University of Education Weingarten, Germany): Stefan Kruse is Professor for technology and its didactics at the University of Education Weingarten. Previously, he was a research assistant in the Department of Technology at the University of Education in Schwabisch Gmünd from 2000 to 2015. From 2015 to 2017 he was head of the Technical Education Department at the Centre for Science and Technology Didactics at the PH FHNW. His research interests focus on, amongst other things, the basic research and systematization of multimedia learning environments in technology education, as well as the integration of E-learning with the multi-perspective approach in didactics in technology. Member of the scientific advisory board for the Journal of Technical Education (JoTED).
• Labudde, Peter (University of Applied Sciences Northwestern Switzerland, Switzerland): Professor at the Institute for Educational Research and Development at the University of Applied Sciences Northwestern Switzerland. His research interests focus on, amongst other things, the learning and teaching processes in science education, international comparative studies on science education and gender research in mathematics and science teaching.
