Abstract
The idea of “techne” in ancient Greece philosophy has been passed down to the current idea of technology, although its content has changed over time. It is being developed for present technology and information education in elementary, junior high, and high schools in school education. However, there is no consistency in developing manufacturing education in elementary schools, technology field of Technology and Home Economics education in junior high schools, and information education and vocational education in high schools, where there is no unified educational goal for all school types. It is necessary to establish the comprehensive concept of technology and information education as general education. The Japan Society of Technology Education proposes a ''new technology education framework that creates next-generation learning,'' and presents a new way of thinking that encompasses the whole with the concept of ''system,'' which was not present in current junior high school technology education. To consider the proposed specific content, this research considers technology and information education systematically by incorporating the idea of cognitive science and design science, bridging subjects, and problem solving.
