Naïve Designers' Information Use during the Design Process in a Low-Resource Classroom
2018
Eurasia Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education
Facilitating the design process in low-resource Technology classrooms has become increasingly challenging in the 21st century. This research focuses on the types of information sources used during learners' design processes. We examine the information sources that nine South African Grade 9 learners from a low-resource school used while they were engaged in a mechanical systems and control design task. They worked in groups of three to design a machine to lift logs from the ground onto a truck.
