Sketching by design: teaching sketching to young learners

Training of Future Technology Teachers: Management Tools and Challenges in Current Educational Process

“…Thus, in most Western countries technology education has been developed only in the past two or three decades (Kangas & Seitamaa-Hakkarainen, 2017). There is considerable variation between countries in how this subject is included in the curriculum and used in the classroom (Kelley & Sung, 2017). It is an interesting fact that in Great Britain technology at school, unlike in Russia, is considered the main subject, and the level of technological training of youth allows the state to be in the list of the most advanced countries for a long time.…”

Sketching Engineering Design in STEM Classroom: A Systematic Review

“…Sketching is perceived as "traditional technology" in the emergence of high-end digital gadgets pro to designing, nevertheless serve wide potential in engineering design education research. Previous research has indicated sketching possess positive impact on initial stage generation of idea in solving open-ended problems visually (King, English, King, & English, 2016), producing innovation by creating authentic products (Kelley & Sung, 2017) or simply act as communication support (Taborda, Chandrasegaran, Kisselburgh, Reid, & Ramani, 2012). Currently, the focus of research involving sketching is to gain understanding how student use sketching to learn and how the process integrate and support science learning (Kelley & Sung, 2017).…”

Currently, the focus of research involving sketching is to gain understanding how student use sketching to learn and how the process integrate and support science learning (Kelley & Sung, 2017). focusing on middle schoolchildren as the "gate barrier" in early STEM attainment (Shahali, Halim, Rasul, Osman, & Zulkifeli, 2017).…”

“…All five studies agreed that teacher's instruction play major role in supporting younger children ability to produce design in engineering-based project. In terms of research framework, (Kelley & Sung, 2017) applied the works from (Hope, 2008) which identify cognitive levels by classification of student drawing designs while, (King, English, King, & English, 2016) use the approach by (Crismond & Adams, 2012).…”

“…Hence, STEM-integrated approach has been in the limelight among practitioners in order to achieve the mission to produce qualified STEM professionals and inculcate STEM literacy to future global citizens (MOE, 2013). Educational researchers claimed the effectiveness of implementing STEM-integrated activities soars by generating competitive workforce equipped characteristics of design enable its application in various area of interest (Kelley & Sung, 2017;Wendell et al, 2010) including engineering design (Dym, Agonino, Eris, Frey, & Leifer, 2005). Growing body of literature supported the effectiveness of engineering design in elevating student interest in STEM subjects and sustain affection towards future STEM career (Mohd Shahali, Halim, Rasul, Osman, & Mohamad Arsad, 2018;Tseng, Chang, Lou, & Chen, 2013).…”
