This volume breaks new ground by asking how our understandings of gender can be informed by exploring the socio-technical relations of ICTs in health care, and how far an appreciation of the ways in which gender works can inform and improve our understanding of how ICTs are being developed, implemented, and used in health care contexts.

Teaching Technology: Intermediate to Senior Phase covers both the conceptual and practical components of the subject of technology, as outlined in the CAPS. This involves the teaching of discipline-specific skills, such as problem solving using the design process, and also broader life skills, such as needs identification. The book explores teaching methods for technology education, covering lesson planning, classroom management, assessment and the use of resources and information and communications technology (ICT). Because science is integrated with technology in the intermediate phase, there is a special section on how teachers should approach this. For the senior phase, the book examines how particular knowledge strands should be dealt with. A unique aspect is the focus on integrating indigenous knowledge and technologies. It is also written with an awareness of the issues of sustainability. The book is appropriate for student teachers in BEd and PGCE programmes as well as in-service teachers and those enrolled in ACE/ADE programmes.
