Abstract
In an era in which technology develops at a great pace and affects every
aspects of our life, it is reasonable to assume an association between technology
and growth. Therefore, the terms technology literacy and teaching technology
have gradually gained importance. Developed nations have developed their
curricula with the goal to raise individuals who can easily adapt to fast developing
technology, use it efficiently, and generate new technologies. This paper
intends to determine the place of technology education in developed countries
like USA, England and France to compare them with the present situation in
Turkey. The comparison revealed that the above cited nations have developed
awareness towards technology education and developed their curricula accordingly.
Turkey, however, has been rather late to raise similar awareness and
unlikely deprived of the supports from civil institutions and organizations.
Moreover differences were observed in achieving horizontal integration.
