The D&T Association is the recognised professional association which represents all those involved in design and technology education and associated subject areas.  The D&T Association's objective is to "promote the advancement of education and in particular but not exclusively to support, encourage, promote, develop and maintain design and technological education in all its branches".   See advert for course    'Embedding ICT in D&T'

 

'NAAIDT believes that design and technology capability is best developed through being engaged in the purposeful practical activity of making things using a range of processes, equipment and materials. When engaged in design and technology activity, pupils should undertake work in contexts which are challenging, relevant and motivating. The emphasis on practical experience is central to design and technology and should enable pupils to play a full and active role in a technological society and influence the quality of their environment.'     Click here for a very useful  list of  free software, and other resources   also an important paper   'e-Mature Learning in Design and Technology'.
