Student Tools Student Text Technology: Engineering Our World is an introductory text. With an emphasis on science and math, it educates students on how these basic principles have been used to develop various technologies. Problem solving using a design process initiates learning, and the impact of technology on people’s lives is addressed. Students also learn about the responsibilities that come with the development and use of technology, both societal and environmental. Student STEM skills are developed through application activities. The text correlates with all middle school benchmarks of the Standards for Technological Literacy. This revision reflects: • More information on manufacturing, automation, and robotics. • An increased coverage and emphasis on safety. • More content on drawing and sketching. • Updated coverage of green and the latest technologies.
