1.0 PREAMBLE1.1 Introduction

This Building Technology and Design syllabus is de-signed for Forms 1 - 4 learners. Both theory and practice will be at the center of implementing this syllabus. The syllabus ensures access to learning and teaching Building Technology and Design regardless of gender and learners’ diverse needs.

The syllabus promotes learners’ development of psycho-motor skills and techniques and ensures that learners develop socially, physically, emotionally and cognitively. Itservesasafirmfoundationforself-reliance,entryintothe construction industry, further studies and training in Building Technology and Design.

1.2 Rationale

The philosophy of the Zimbabwean Constitution provides for decent housing and shelter for all which makes it necessary for the learning and teaching of Building Technology and Design in schools. This course encourages learners to employ problem solving skillswhichpromotetheapplicationofscientificandtechnological knowledge. The learning areas will enable learners to appreciate the dignity of labour, integrity, unhu/Ubuntu and patriotism. It is therefore imperative that the learners are afforded an opportunity to study this learning area as they pursue their education and prepare for future careers and entrepreneurial activities.

1.3 Summary of Content (Knowledge, Skills and Attitudes)

This syllabus will cover theory and practical activities in areas such as design and drawing, material science, use and care of building tools and equipment, construction processes, estimations, application of by-laws, health and safety issues. Learners will be engaged in community development projects, infrastructure mainte-nance and attachment to construction industry.

1.4 Methodology and Time Allocation

Suggested Methods

The syllabus is based upon interactive, learner centred, multi -sensory and hands on approaches. Principles of individualization,concretenesstotalityandwholenessand simulation must be applied to enhance the suggest-ed teaching methods. These approaches and principles

encourage curiosity and promote practical orientated learning whereby learners apply their experiences, knowledge, skills and attitudes independently. Linkage between theory and practice is strongly recommended in the learning and teaching of Building Technology and Design. The following are suggested methods:

1.4.1 Case study1.4.2 Discussions1.4.3 Project based learning1.4.4 Educational tours 1.4.5 E-learning1.4.6 Experimentation1.4.7 Individualisation1.4.8 Problem solving1.4.9 Discovery method1.4.10 Demonstrations1.4.11 Survey1.4.12 Visual tactile1.4.13 Gallery walk1.4.14 Resource person(s)1.4.15Schoolontheshopfloor1.4.16 Group work

Time Allocation

Eight periods of 35 - 40 minutes per week should be allocated for adequate mastery of competencies.

1.5 Assumptions

The syllabus assumes that learners have:

• drawingandmeasuringskills• knowledgeofsomebuildingtoolsandmaterials• knowledgeofdifferentbuildingdesigns• informationcommunicationtechnology• numeracyandscientificskills• engagedincooperativeworkandself-assessment

activities

1.6 Cross-cutting themes

In order to foster competency development in the learner, the following cross-cutting issues have to be taken into consideration:

• Gender• Children’sRightsandresponsibilities• LifeSkills• DisasterRiskManagement• InformationCommunicationTechnologytools• ChildProtection
