Welcome to Mr. Purdy's web page.  I have been teaching at Queensbury since 1986 and graduated from QHS in 1981!

Technology is defined as all the things we do to solve problems by processing resources into new forms and products.  Computers are technology and so is something as simple as a chair.

I believe technology education is best learned in context. That means students learn best when they experience the concept I am trying to teach.

Technological impacts are often taken for granted by students. This belief that the impacts from technology are safe can cause injury and create societal problems.  We discuss the implications of technology during every activity.
