The Technology and Engineering Education test is designed for candidates seeking certification as a middle school or high school teacher. The test focuses on the knowledge and skills a teacher must have to support the technology education curriculum. It incorporates essential concepts from the Technological Literacy Standards prepared by the International Technology and Engineering Educators Association (ITEEA). In addition, the test reflects concepts from the International Society for Technology Standards for Teachers (ISTE® Standards•T).
The 120 selected-response questions cover topics in technology education, including knowledge of information and communication; construction, manufacturing, and energy/power/transportation technologies; and the impact of these areas on individuals, the environment, and society. The test taker is required to apply pedagogical and professional knowledge to answer questions focused on the individual understanding and application of current technology education principles. This test may contain some questions that will not count toward your score.
