Send me a message.In this episode, I'm sharing some exciting developments in design and technology education, starting with insights from a recent policy event I led at Nottingham Trent University. The day brought together D&T teachers and university lecturers in design education to envision the future of our subject, using an innovative co-navigator approach from Denmark.I discuss the growing collaboration between schools and universities in design education, highlighted by lightning talks from key figures including Tony Ryan from the D&T Association and Michelle Gregson from the National Society for Education in Art and Design. The event demonstrated how breaking down barriers between educational sectors can enrich our understanding of design education's progression from primary through to higher education.Looking ahead, I preview an upcoming series about pedagogy in D&T, where we'll be taking a fresh look at familiar teaching approaches like demonstrations, WAGGOLLs, and frameworks such as ACCESS FM. Working with Sarah Davies and Alice Hellard, we'll be exploring what research tells us about these techniques and how we might enhance their use in our classrooms.For those interested in connecting with other D&T practitioners, I introduce the Archer Exchange Network, a new platform for sharing ideas and research in our field. As you reflect on your own teaching approaches, what aspects of D&T pedagogy would you like to examine more deeply? Whether you're teaching in the UK or internationally, I'd love to hear your thoughts on how we can build stronger connections between research and classroom practice.Subscribe to stay updated on these discussions and join our growing community of design educators.Support the showIf you like the podcast, you can always buy me a coffee to say 'thanks!'Please offer your feedback about the show or ideas for future episodes and topics by connecting with me on Threads @hardy_alison or by emailing me.If you listen to the podcast on Apple Podcasts, please take a moment to rate and/or review the show.

Send me a message.In this episode of the Talking D&T podcast, I describe the recent curriculum and assessment review panel meeting I attended in Cambridgeshire. I explore the ongoing call for evidence and its implications for design and technology education.One key insight from the meeting was the emphasis on evolution, not revolution, in curriculum changes. This approach considers the financial constraints and the current strain on the teaching workforce. Another significant point was the focus on social justice, highlighting the need to address barriers faced by disadvantaged students and those with special educational needs.We also discussed the potential impact of making the national curriculum mandatory for all schools, including academies. This could standardise educational aims and content, ensuring a more cohesive approach across the country.For D&T teachers, this episode offers valuable reflections on how these changes might affect your practice. Consider how you can contribute to the call for evidence by identifying specific pinch points in the curriculum that impact your students. Reflect on what works well in your teaching and what could be improved, and think about how these insights can inform your responses.Listeners, especially those in the UK, will find this episode particularly relevant, but I encourage our international audience to tune in as well. The themes of equity and effective curriculum design are universal.Acknowledgement:Some of the supplementary content for this podcast episode was crafted with the assistance of Claude, an AI language model developed by Anthropic.

Subscriber-only episodeSend me a message.In this episode of Talking D&T, I reflect on the conversation published earlier this week with Tony Ryan about the various industry contexts developed by the Design and Technology Association for Key Stage 3 pupils in England. I explore  the complexities that teachers face when designing a unit of work, particularly in the realm of design and technology.Drawing from the "Inspired by Industry" work discussed by Tony, I emphasise the importance of selecting contexts that engage and motivate young learners. However, I also acknowledge that not all contexts will appeal to every pupil, as engagement is subjective and dependent on individual interests.I discuss the role of teacher stereotypes and the need for awareness when choosing design contexts. Using the example of dinosaurs, I explain how teachers might assume certain topics will appeal to specific age groups or genders, and I encourage listeners to question these assumptions by referring to Ulrika Sultan's work on gender stereotyping.Also, I stress the importance of considering pupil progression when planning units of work. I argue that the context itself is not the primary driver for learning but rather a motivator for interest and enjoyment. Teachers must think about how the unit builds upon previous knowledge, introduces new concepts, and prepares pupils for future learning. By doing so, they can help children move from surface-level understanding to deep knowledge retention.(Text generated by AI, edited by Alison Hardy)Ciaran Ellis posted a thought-provoking question on LinkedIn recently: Do design decisions involve value judgements?What do you think?

Send me a message.Early this year I had the pleasure of interviewing Tony Ryan, the Chief Executive of the Design and Technology Association. In this episode, Tony shared exciting updates about the association's initiatives to support and advance design and technology education in the UK.We discussed the "Reimagined" program, which focuses on developing a design-driven, problem-solving approach to the subject at Key Stage 3. The association has created 12 units of work, with plans to release up to 30, inspired by real-world challenges provided by over 300 industry partners. These units aim to engage students in iterative design, CAD, and 3D printing while fostering essential skills like tenacity and collaboration.Tony also highlighted the Association's efforts in primary education, with the popular "Projects on a Page" resources and plans to digitize them for interactive classroom use. We touched upon the lobbying efforts to ensure design and technology remains a valued subject in the curriculum and the need for evidence-based research to support these initiatives.Throughout our conversation, Tony's passion for the subject and dedication to creating innovative, accessible resources shone through. I'm excited to see the impact these projects will have on students and teachers alike.(Text generated by AI, edited by Alison Hardy)From the Design and Technology AssociationRe-imagining report Inspired by Industry:  www.inspiredbyindustry.org.uk, including  the dinosaur unit (click on the 'promotional displays' button).Projects on a Page is sold separately, it is better value  purchased with primary school membershipCiaran Ellis posted a thought-provoking question on LinkedIn recently: Do design decisions involve value judgements?What do you think?

This week, Michael Lillis joined Jarlath to discuss his very unusual journey from diplomat to aviation giant. Together they examine how he left the comfort of the life of a UN Ambassador in Geneva for the business of leasing planes. Michael explains the very Irish reason at the heart of Tony Ryan's scepticism over his ability to work for him (44:00), what he believes can be the secret of winning any negotiation (49:00). We also get his thoughts on the future of the EU post-Brexit (1:01:00) and hear the incredible story how his meeting with Éamon de Valera led to him being "sent down" to work with Charlie Haughey (17:00). Hear why Michael believes Margaret Thatcher betrayed the Unionists "in the most outrageous way" in the Anglo-Irish Agreement (39:00), the grey-areas of giving '"facilitating payments" in the aviation business (49:00), how free public travel for pensioners in Ireland was his idea (21:00) and much more.

A breakthrough for closed loop plastic recycling? Two years ago Japanese scientists discovered a type of bacteria which has evolved to feed on PET plastic - the material from which fizzy drink bottles are made It was isolated at a local recycling centre. An international team has now characterised the structure of the plastic-degrading enzyme and accidentally improved its efficiency. John McGeehan of the University of Portmouth led the team and talks to Adam about where the discovery may lead. If you can't recycle plastic, you can re-use. Sheffield University chemist Tony Ryan is working to convert old polyurethane foam mattresses into hydroponic allotment beds so that people at a Syrian refugee camp in Jordan can grow their own crops. Roland Pease reports. How southeast Asian sea nomads evolved the life aquatic. The Double Helix, fifty years after its 1968 publication. Biologist and historian Matthew Cobb and science writer Angela Saini discuss the place of James Watson's compelling and controversial memoir in the annals of popular science writing. His account of the discovery of the DNA's structure was unlike any science book that had come before. Does it stand the test of time and what of its blantantly sexist treatment of the gifted X-ray crystallographer Rosalind Franklin? Her work was crucial to Crick and Watson's 1953 model of the DNA molecule.

What do miniature solar cells, making clothes that dissolve in the rain and new treatments for motor neurone disease all have in common? Chemistry - according to Professor Tony Ryan of Sheffield University. He develops innovative materials with nanotechnology. In this week's, The Life Scientific, Tony Ryan talks to Jim Al-Khalili and explores issues around the still controversial science of nanotechnology, including how safe it is and how scientists need to learn to talk to the public. Much of Tony's work involves unlikely collaborations to discover novel ways of solving problems and of communicating science. He argues that chemistry can solve today's global challenges such as supporting the needs of 7 billion people in terms of food and power. Clothes that absorb a dangerous greenhouse gas and sheets of plastic solar cells are just a few of his ongoing projects. He says chemistry needs to learn how to recycle every atom, whilst still providing all the things that people want - energy, food, electronics, clothing, and drugs. Producer: Geraldine Fitzgerald.
