Vision Technology and Design Learner's Book 2

VISION PUBLISHING LOWER SECONDARY TECHNOLOGY AND DESIGN LEARNER'S BOOK 2

Investing in skills development through vocational training is a critical ingredient of human capital development. Through Technology & Design, the learner will build up their creativity, problem-solving, planning, and evaluation skills.

This New Vision Technology and Design Book Two is practical: it espouses the true attributes of a vocational subject. Throughout this book, emphasis has been put not merely on what the learner knows (knowledge), but rather what she/he can do (skill/applicability) with the acquired knowledge to solve real-life problems in the community. The book is structured for the learner to not only delight in learning Technology and Design, but to develop an eye to spot opportunities where he or she can use their knowledge and skills to solve real-life problems and earn an income.

Generic skills, essential life skills and values, as well as appreciation of other cross-cutting issues have been catered for in this textbook. In line with the National Development Plan objectives of increasing sustainable production, productivity and value addition, this Technology & Design Book intends to transform the learner into a model citizen, whose technical and vocational training shall prepare him to be a job creator rather than a job seeker.
