Abstract
Technology education in Taiwan is categorized into the following two types: (1) technological literacy education (TLE)--the education for all people to become technological literates; and (2) technological specialty education (TSE)--the education for specific people to become technicians and professionals for technology-related jobs. This paper describes TLE, and technological and vocational education (TVE). The former is a realm of general education, while the latter is a part of TSE. The purpose of this paper is to introduce TLE and TVE in Taiwan. (Contains 7 figures.)
