An unbroken chain: linking our past and future
journal contribution
posted on 2010-06-24, 11:26 authored by Eddie NormanIt is both an honour and privilege to have been
asked to take over as the Editor of the
relaunched Design and Technology Education:
An International Journal. The contributions of
the two previous Editors have been immense.
Professor John Eggleston was the driving force
behind the founding of the Journal as Studies in
Education and Craft in 1967 (and its evolution
into Studies in Design Education, Craft and
Technology in 1978 and Design and Technology
Teaching: a journal of new approaches in 1989).
Throughout his time as Editor during the 1970s,
1980s and early 1990s, the Journal was at the
centre of the debates that shaped the
development of design and technology as a
school subject. In 1996 Professor Richard
Kimbell took over as Editor and it was renamed
the The Journal of Design and Technology
Education. At the time of this handover of the
reins, John Eggleston wrote as follows:
The new feature will be a regular selection of
the growing body of new research that is
now available for the enlightenment of
practitioners in the field – much of it being
generated by practitioners themselves.
