    • Summary:Packed full of practical ideas, this book is a stimulating source of guidance for busy trainee and practising teachers. Underpinned by the very latest research, it offers a wealth of suggestions to foster creative development, with chapters supporting D&T in the early years, food education, drawing and design, and construction kits. The text also takes lessons outside, considering how learning experiences have the potential to extend students' technological knowledge, promoting problem-solving and evaluation. Drawing upon examples from real-world projects in the UK and overseas, the book is invaluable for all those who wish to engage students in D&T and encourage creative classroom practice.
