《國際技術與設計教育雜志》鼓勵研究和學術寫作，涵蓋技術與設計教育的各個方面。該雜志以評論、評論和比較研究為特色。此外，讀者還可以從歷史、哲學、社會學或心理學研究等其他領域找到自己的貢獻，這些研究涉及到技術和設計教育的問題。編委會認為技術和設計教學是一種新興的實踐，而不是一種既定的實踐，許多開放性問題需要研究。這些問題包括技術教師的準備、技術能力的評估以及技術與其他課程要素（尤其是科學）的關系。還有一些重要的政策問題需要解決，涉及課程改革的實踐和基本原理。

The International Journal of Technology and Design Education encourages research and scholarly writing covering all aspects of technology and design education. The journal features critical, review, and comparative studies. In addition, readers will find contributions that draw upon other fields such as historical, philosophical, sociological, or psychological studies that address issues of concern to technology and design education.The Editorial Board views the teaching of technology and design as an emergent rather than an established practice, with many open issues requiring research. Among these issues are the preparation of technology teachers, the assessment of technological competence, and the relationship of technology to other curriculum elements, notably science. There are also significant policy questions that need to be addressed relating to the practice and rationale of curriculum change.
