Components of Technological Practice

The examples of teaching strategies below are shown against specific curriculum levels. When planning a technology unit however the specific teaching strategy selected will depend on the context learning. Teachers are therefore encouraged to look across the curriculum levels to identify strategies that best match the focused teaching needs of their students and the context selected for learning.
