wood shop survey

W. Andrew Harrell, Ph.D. is a retired university professor who believes that wood shop should be a part of every middle school and high school curriculum in America. He has developed a survey for shop teachers to gather information for making the case. You can contact Dr. Harrell and take the survey by contacting him at harandrw@aol.com

The survey explores the risks involved in woodworking programs. For a discussion of the benefits, readers might enjoy this document, 21 Reasons for School Wood Shops that I helped write for the New England Association of Woodworking Teachers.

I am now preparing for a class next week at ESSA on the brain, hands and the arts.
