The main purpose of this article is to describe some of the ways in which Walsall College of Technology is approaching the teaching of new technology. The approach and methodologies adopted at the college for the course described here are not considered to be the definitive solution to the daunting task of retraining and educating staff to teach the new technology disciplines. They are described here mainly to act as a catalyst for other colleges and to open up communication between colleges, industry and commerce. The need to offer courses relevant to the wants of industry and commerce increases as the technology rapidly changes. Because the methods adopted by teachers and the curriculum are dependent upon the needs of the students, their needs are discussed. As the methods are so dependent also upon equipment availability resource management is discussed. The views expressed here are mine and are not intended to represent the views held by other members of the college staff. I welcome constructive criticism on the approach and methodology described and would also like to communicate with other colleges that are involved with similar courses.
