A PHCC Auxiliary booklet for students about different types of careers in construction. Particulary looking at plumbing, heating, ventilation and air conditioning. (Apprenticeships, Getting a Job, Construction)
A major strand of science and technology studies in recent decades has related to the social construction of technology (SCOT) movement, whose adherents maintain that technological systems are determined just as much by social forces as by technological ones. Taking this SCOT notion as a starting point, and putting a focus on the user, this paper looks at some examples of the educational use of software tools that exploit the functionality of the software in ways far removed from the original design.
