| 6/9/25 | ![]() Holistic Evaluation: The True Measure of Design & Technology Capability | Send me a message. Holistic, summative assessment is essential for properly evaluating design and technology capability, drawing on research by Richard Kimball and Kay Stables that predates the National Curriculum and has been tested across multiple countries and age groups. Effective capability assessment tasks allow pupils to demonstrate ability to respond to an unfamiliar design contexAssessment focuses on students' design capability, not their knowledge of the specific contextTeachers s... | 14m 06s | ||||||
| 6/2/25 | ![]() Beyond the Design Crit: How Students Learn Through Giving and Receiving Feedback | Send me a message. Formative assessment in Design and Technology requires structured peer feedback approaches to be effective. Research shows a significant gap in assessing technological knowledge, with most studies focusing on design knowledge instead. • Design crits from higher education can be adapted for classroom use through peer feedback • Research from the Netherlands identifies convergent feedback (clarifying ideas) and divergent feedback (promoting creative responses) • Teachers mus... | 9m 51s | ||||||
| 5/26/25 | ![]() The Research Gap: How to Assess Knowledge Components in Design & Technology | Send me a message. How do we effectively assess knowledge in Design and Technology education? It's a question with surprisingly few research-backed answers, despite its critical importance to teaching practice. I talk about this assessment gap in the second episode of my sub-series on D&T research. I remind listeners that D&T knowledge encompasses both conceptual understanding ("knowing what") and procedural application ("knowing how"), forming the foundation upon which capabil... | 10m 38s | ||||||
| 5/19/25 | ![]() Assessment in D&T: An Overview | Send me a message. How do we measure what truly matters in Design and Technology education? The challenge lies in distinguishing between assessing individual knowledge components and evaluating the holistic capability that emerges when students apply their learning autonomously. In this foundational episode, I introduce a new mini-series focused entirely on assessment in D&T education. Drawing from research literature, I establish the critical difference between two assessment targets: s... | 7m 30s | ||||||
| 5/13/25 | ![]() Deliberate Teaching: The Art of Pedagogical Decision-Making in D&T | Send me a message. What makes for effective teaching in Design & Technology? Returning after a brief hiatus, I delve into the research-backed pedagogical approaches that can transform D&T education. This episode synthesizes my recent exploration of teaching strategies, clarifying the crucial distinction between curriculum (what we teach) and pedagogy (how we develop student capabilities). At the heart of D&T education lies a persistent misconception I'm determined to challenge: t... | 10m 42s | ||||||
| 4/14/25 | ![]() Exploring Product Analysis as Signature Pedagogy in D&T | Send me a message. In this episode of the Talking D&T podcast, I explore the pedagogical approach of product analysis, often known as IDEAS (Investigation, Disassembly, Evaluation, and Analysis). I examine how this signature pedagogy helps develop learners' understanding of technology in society—a core aim of the National Curriculum in England. I discuss how product analysis bridges curriculum and pedagogy by teaching pupils to examine artefacts through multiple lenses. When handled thoug... | 11m 44s | ||||||
| 4/7/25 | ![]() Beyond Design and Make: Exploring Pedagogical Approaches in D&T | Send me a message. In this episode, I delve into the pedagogical approaches that exist beyond the traditional 'design and make' activities in Design and Technology education. Drawing on research literature and classroom practice, I explore how 'mainly designing' and 'mainly making' activities can be powerful pedagogical tools when used deliberately and appropriately. I share insights from Bill Nichol's work on designing for future contexts, including how case studies and question cards can he... | 16m 10s | ||||||
| 3/31/25 | ![]() Design and Make: A Critical Look | Send me a message. In this episode of Talking D&T, I explore the complex nature of design and make activities in design and technology education. Drawing on research from Richard Kimball, David Perry, and Robert McCormick, I unpack the pedagogical approach of design and make that underpins our subject and challenge some common misconceptions about "the design process". A key insight emerges around the balance between process and outcome in D&T education. When we become fixated on the ... | 13m 03s | ||||||
| 3/23/25 | ![]() Pedagogy & Design: Clarifying Teaching Methods in D&T | Send me a message. Drawing a clear line between how we teach and what we teach seems straightforward—until you step into a Design & Technology classroom. In this thought-provoking exploration of pedagogy in D&T education, I unpack why teachers often blur the boundaries between teaching methods and curriculum content, sometimes without realising it. The heart of effective D&T education lies in developing students' design and technology capability, but this requires navigating compl... | 14m 15s | ||||||
