Abstract
This article explores the viability of implementing a technology learning programme in a school for learners with special educational needs. TechnEd (the former RAUTEC), Bernina, the school and the Gauteng Department of Education were involved in the project. The nature of the project required a qualitative, action research approach using group interviewing, observation and narratives to gather data. The action research allowed for evaluation, planning and action after every session. Qualitative data analysis methods were applied. The project had the following educational value for the learners: cognitive, personal and social skill development.
