2 What is an entrepreneur? Stereotypes Used car Salesman Spiv Minority World

3 What is an entrepreneur? Majority World Jane is a street-side lunch lady in Nairobi. She is a micro-entrepreneur, and small business owner.

4 What is indigenous Knowledge? Indigenous knowledge refers to detailed and complex systems of knowledge that Indigenous peoples have gathered and developed of their natural environment, including plant and animal ecology, climate, and other local conditions and resource management.

5 What is indigenous Knowledge? 7th century Windmill Design (Afghanistan) Hall, D. (1991) Mechanical Engineering in the Mediaeval Near East, Scientific American Windmills were developed to grind grain and irrigating land in the Near East. The Crusaders brought the designs back to Europe in the 12th century.

6 What is Recyling? Minority World Every ton of plastic bottles recycled saves ~3.8 barrels of oil

7 What is Recyling? Majority World A recycled oil barrel and an old axle used to transport water in South Sudan

8 Scientific literacy in the Early Years Progress? Knocked 200 minutes off the time it took to transport 100 people from London to New York (Cost: 20 Million+) Knocked 14 hours off the time it took to transport a day s supply of clean water to a village (Cost: 40) Which is...the best?..the most appropriate?

11 Scientific literacy in the Early Years Minority World Science and Tecnology Majority World Science and Technology Progress?

12

13 Research shows that children associate Wealth with White skin: being happy being good having good employment prospects being clever Relative poverty with Black skin: being sad being bad having poor employment prospects being less clever Research Report:

14 Scientific literacy in the Early Years Edward Said (1994) has refered to this as the 'impressive circularity' of British self identification: "...we are dominant because we have the power (industrial, technological, military, moral), and they don't, because of which they are not dominant; they are inferior, we are superior... and so on and on. One sees this tautology holding with a particular tenacity in British views of Ireland and the Irish as early as the sixteenth century it gradually extends its sway to include practically the whole world beyond British shores" (p127).

15 The part played by the children s common sense evaluation of technology Which is the best house? Which is most economic? Which is most sustainable? Which is the most appropriate building?

16 Appropriate Technology Education in the Early Years e.g. Houses Which is the best?..the most appropriate?

17 Scientific literacy in the Early Years

18 Appropriate Consumption in the Early Years e.g. Toys Which is the best?..the most appropriate?
