V. William DeLuca and W. James Haynie, III
Revised in 2014 by Tyler S. Love and Kenneth Russell Roy
Completely revised in 2014, this manual aids teachers in developing and carrying out a safety program in the technology and engineering education classroom. The guide uses the systems approach: Safety in the classroom is dependent on the interaction of varied elements, and many of these elements are discussed in the text, such as the environment, human factors, tools and equipment, processes, materials, and outside influences. The manual includes sample releases and other forms that teachers can duplicate for classroom use. New in this edition are 18 printable safety posters with corresponding safety tests and Power-Point presentations and videos that teachers can use to reinforce safer practices as well as a link to ITEEA’s Safety Resource site where teachers can access these resources..

The Connection to the 21st Century Workforce: Technology and Engineering Education
Building a competitive workforce for the 21st Century requires the careful alignment of K-12 and university curricula with the skill needs of business and industry. In addition to making students better problem solvers, critical thinkers, and users of technology, academic preparation must instill in them the desire to become lifelong learners, willing and able to adjust and adapt to changes in workforce skill requirements resulting from fast-changing global markets. This publication provides a snapshot of the current state of the economy and workforce, followed by the identification and requirements of knowledge and abilities needed for 21st Century occupations, an explanation of how technology and engineering education programs promote learning about technology and can be taught in exciting ways that motivate learners to pursue STEM occupations, chapters that explain the contributions of technology and engineering education, K-12, a chapter explaining how technology and engineering teacher education can prepare teachers to deliver the education that is needed by students of the 21st Century, and an overview of the benefits business and industry can expect from the recommendations made within this publication. 74 pages, 2011.
