Talking D&T is a podcast about design and technology education. Join me, Dr Alison Hardy, as I share news, views, ideas and opinions about D&T. I also talk about D&T with teachers, researchers and academics from the D&T community. The views on this podcast are my own and of those I am interviewing and are not connected to my institution. Much of the content is work in progress. As well as talking about D&T, I use it to explore new ideas and thoughts related to D&T education and my research, which are still embryonic and may change. Consult my publications for a reliable record of my considered thoughts on the topic featured in this podcast.Podcast music composed by Chris Corcoran (http://www.svengali.org.uk)

TD&T103 Talking about the EPI report with Tony Ryan
After my episode about the EPI report (the state of D&T) I am delighted to be joined by Tony Ryan, chief exec of the Design and Technology Association. Listen to me ask him some awkward questions, his frank replies and honesty about how he feels about the report's findings, plus shares some news about what's next.
(Update - we recorded this a few weeks ago and D&TA are now in the middle of the events asking for views from head teachers, business and other organisations about D&T.)

Customer Reviews
A fantastic listen, even for those experienced D&T teachers out there
I stumbled across these podcasts recently and I have found them really engaging. I’m a Head
of D&T and enjoyed listening to refreshing thoughts and opinions about the teaching of this subject. Nice short and concise content which is perfect for a drive into work.
