We use these technologies to help us solve problems and extend human capabilities. Information from this presentation is from The Donald Maley Monograph Series — Volume 1 Maryland Technology Education Graduation Outcomes 1994 Published by ITEA, Produced by TEAM
Mechanical Technology the technology of putting together mechanical parts to produce, control and transmit motion Example:
Structural Technology the technology of putting parts and materials together to create supports, containers, shelters, connectors and functional shapes. Example:
Materials Technology • the technology of producing, altering and combining materials • Example-
Electrical Systems • the technology of producing, storing, controlling, transmitting and getting work from electrical energy • Example:
Electronic Systems • The technology of using small amounts of electricity for controlling; detecting; and information collecting, storing, retrieving, processing and communicating Example:
Thermal Technology • the technology of producing, storing, controlling, transmitting and getting work form heat energy • Example-
Optical Technology • the technology of producing light; controlling light; using light for information collection, processing, storage, retrieval and communication; and using light to do work. • Example-
Bio Technology • the technology of using, adapting and altering organisms and biological processes for a desired outcome Example:
CORE TECHNOLOGIESAssignment What’s going on?
Core technology Assignment Research online and find a new invention that has just come onto the market or is about to come onto the market. Create a Prezi to present what you found. Your Prezi should have: • Name of invention/technology • Picture (actual picture)/Price if available • Description of what it does (in your own words) • Does it solve a problem or extend our capabilities or both? • Which core technology does it belong in?
