    This is a school site in Austrailia that I stumbled upon (I know it's Austrailia but it is really interesting in how they break down technology education).

    I thought this site was interesting because it has a heading titled, "What Counts as Technology?" It goes over technology as objects, knowledge, activities, processes, and as a sociotechnical system. It also discusses technology and gender and has several links to support their theories and research. Very neat and detailed!
