TD Media Planner

The magazine for technology, career-technical, and
pre-engineering educators.
The magazine for you.

techdirections helps teachers prepare students for advanced training and employment in technical and engineering careers. Our readers are teachers, department heads, and administrators in technology, career-technical, and pre-engineering education from middle school through postsecondary levels. No other magazine covers the field like we do.

Published monthly August through May, the magazine features hands-on classroom projects that develop critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and knowledge of technology concepts. We also cover teaching trends and methods, successful programs, and special features on media, equipment, and supplies.
