Technology & Engineering Education has evolved as technology has advanced. During the industrial era of the 20th century, it was taught in the schools as Industrial Arts, reflecting the industrial society. As advancements have catapulted us into a faster moving, more highly sophisticated, technological society, Technology & Engineering Education has made curriculum adjustments that reflect these changes.
