Abstract:

Electronics technology education requires workshop or laboratory setting for an ideal teaching situation. This programme helps the learners to learn how to design, construct, experiment, test, dismantle, repair and create. In the method of planning laboratory or workshop in electronic technology education, technological educators determine the need to up date the workshop. Anticipated formal planning needs, equipment, furniture, built in storage, cabinets, shelving, special storage racks, special consideration for auxiliary room, wall, floors, door and windows; duly protected, permanent, rare service, school environment and access drivers, are unavoidably provided in study. In electronics laboratory, space relationship, use of double diagram to show the relationships and equipment location .Technology education laboratory/workshop curriculum, industrial arts recommendations and meterage table are included in the study. Illuminating engineering society recommendations, laboratory/workshops instructional activities are available in the study. Planning the laboratory for teaching and learning activities are the invaluable quality facilities needed in electronics workshops.
