Technology Projects for the Classroom
By Allan Kaufman and Jim Flowers
This book presents 20 engaging projects for middle-school and high-school technology students. Projects range in difficulty from basic to advanced, with degree of difficulty clearly specified. Each features background information—including real-world parallels and applications of related technology, safety precautions, detailed construction procedure, and study questions. All materials are readily available and most are inexpensive.
Designed to motivate as well as educate students, the projects are both fun and challenging. They are arranged under the categories of communication, production, transportation, and R & D/problem solving
