Abstract
The theme for the PATT-11 conference, New Media in Technology Education, is certainly not one of the easiest when it comes to developing a balanced view on its merits and limits. It almost seems like one is either a total addict, or one takes a Luddite stand and rejects it. The aim of the conference was to work towards a more nuanced picture of the possible role of new media in technology education. In this summary an effort will be made to present the outcomes of the conference in such a way that it becomes clear how both advantages and disadvantages of using new media have been dealt with, in other words both the threats and opportunities that they offer to technology education.
