About the journal
The International Journal of Technology and Design Education seeks to encourage research and scholarly writing about any aspect of technology and design education. Critical, review, and comparative studies are particularly prominent, as are contributions which draw upon other literatures, such as those derived from historical, philosophical, sociological or psychological studies of technology or design, in order to address issues of concern to technology and design education. One of the most significant developments of recent years has been the emergence of technology and design education as an integral part of general education in many parts of the world. Its distinctive curriculum features are technological literacy and capability and it highlights the importance of `knowledge in action', of `doing' as well as `understanding'. However, teaching technology and design as a component of general education is an emergent, rather than an established, practice and many questions remain to be answered. In addition to issues about the nature of technology itself, little is known about students' learning and teachers' understandings of technology and about what it means to become more technologically capable. There are important issues about the preparation of technology teachers, the assessment of technological competence and the relationship of technology to other curriculum elements, notably science. There are also significant policy questions relating to the practice and rationale of curriculum change.
Instructions to Authors
Articles for publication
Four copies should be sent to (submission in electronic form of the final version of your article is compulsory): International Journal of Technology and Design Education Journals Editorial Office Kluwer Academic Publishers P.O. Box 990 3300 AZ Dordrecht The Netherlands
As well as high quality content, the journal will strive to publish articles that are well written. Authors are asked to carefully rewrite articles with the aim of producing a clear, well-punctuated, well-structured, direct text. Authors should provide some brief introduction to highly technical terms that are used, or subject-specific debates that are alluded to. Please check that full and complete bibliographic details are given for all references, and that these follow exactly - to the comma, semi-colon, and full stop - the style conventions outlined below.
Manuscripts
These should be typed double-spaced with wide margins, and submitted in quadruplicate. Equations and symbols should be typed if possible; in any case, clarity is essential. The first page of the article should contain the author憇 name, full address, article title, and if necessary a running head (condensed title) of no more than 43 characters including spaces. This first page should also include an abstract of 100-200 words; a capitalised ABSTRACT should precede the first word. All pages should be consecutively numbered, including notes and bibliography. Notes should be placed at the end of the article, before the bibliography, not at the bottom of each page. Submission on IBM-compatible disc is requested, please identify the word-processing programme used.
Please provide on a separate sheet a brief biographical note written in the third person: include present position, education, research interests, some recent major publications if appropriate. This will be used in the About the Authors statement. Please also provide Fax number, electronic mail address, home and work phone numbers in order to assist communication. There is no maximum length prescribed, however articles over 12,000 words would need justification; 4,000-8,000 words is the preferred range. Brief reports on programmes, lessons etc., are encouraged; as are brief rejoinders, comments, and letters. News items are also welcome.
Punctuation
Please note that the Chicago Style Manual, and more generally the North American, convention of placing punctuation marks within quotation marks or inverted commas will definitely not be followed. Thus words will be listed as: "comma", "marks", "law"; not as "comma," "marks," "law;". The latter incorrect usage makes punctuation marks part of the word, which clearly they are not. Likewise where quotations occur in a sentence, the immediately following punctuation mark will be placed outside of the quotation mark.
Single inverted commas are to be used for all quotations, and for naming words; double inverted commas are to be used only for quotes within quotations.
Symbols
Unusual symbols should be identified in the margin, and an alternative or equivalent symbol or sign should be provided if the used one is rare. Special care should be taken to distinguish between the letter O and zero, the letter l and the number one, kappa and K, mu and u, nu and v, eta and n. Subscripts and superscripts should be marked if not clear.
Figures
All figures must be suitable for reproduction without being retouched or redrawn. Check that all lettering will be distinct after being reduced to fit available space on the journal page. Simple diagrams not requiring captions need not be numbered. All other diagrams should be referred to as "Figure?in the text (abbreviated to "Fig.?only in the caption). Write your name and figure number lightly on the back in blue pencil, and indicate in the margin of the text the most appropriate location for the figure. Indicate clearly the top of the figure. The captions should be collected on a separate sheet.
Tables
Number all tables with Roman numerals and include a short title. Vertical lines between columns are to be avoided.
References
These should be listed alphabetically at the end of the article, after the notes. Please follow exactly the following conventions.
Books
Allison, B.: 1986, Index of British Studies in Art and Design Education, Gower Press, Aldershot.
Note the use of initials for authors?first names, capitals in title, publisher precedes place of publication, offset second line.
Journal articles
Arons, A.B.: 1985, "Critical Thinking and the Baccalaureate Curriculum", Liberal Education 71(2), 141-157.

Note the use of "&? and the period and lower-case "e?in "eds.? initials before the editors?surnames.
In-text references are to be used rather than footnote references. Thus at the end of a quote within a sentence have (Kuhn 1970, p.56) before the period. Where a long quotation is offset and blocked, the reference will follow the period. Where a number of references are alluded to, write (Kuhn 1970; Arons 1985; Hodson 1988) - note use of semi-colon.
