Group Task Management: A key element in Technology across the curriculum?

Abstract

It is becommg apparant that the new 'technology' which will evolve to fit the national core curriculum will be different in both content and execution to many of the syllabi carrying the title 'technology' under GCSE. To some extent this is pragmatic, we simply do not have enough teachers to cope with courses similar to current ones. It is also, however, now recognised that this form of technology is not necessarily appropriate. It could be said that current 'technology' syllabi are, in reality, largely engineering science courses which have adopted a much more general title.
