Inventing practical solutions

It's not woodwork, electronics or home economics. Design and technology is all of these, and much more. Rocket science it is. This part of the QCDA website contains general information on design and technology, as well as resources and support for teachers.

RECORDAT takes design and technology to bits, and puts it together again, with many fascinating ways of looking at the subject. This mini-site contains 29 school projects to inspire, as well as advice for teachers and a dedicated section for learners.
