Abstract
The theoretical foundations of Technical Education are traced in various well-known studies. It would be helpful to scan those studies to gain a better understanding of what factors might be contributing to the development process of Technical Education. The approach of classical behaviorist theory shows that it does not adequately address a full range of learning needs, which constructivist theory may address in a more comprehensive way. Studies have shown that Technical Education and the evolution toward higher technology continue to advance. Upon closer examination, shows the vital contribution those theoretical foundations have throughout the evolution of Technical Education.1Federal support for Technical Education must be on the redoubling of efforts to increase the links between not only academic and occupational skills development, but also between businesses and education. As a matter of urgency, attention should be paid to Technical Education due to its impact on society.
