This volume explores how material and physical conditions shape teaching and learning in Home Economics. It examines the interplay between classroom design, equipment, safety, and resources, showing how these material factors support pedagogical practices in line with Sweden's national curricula: Lgr22, Lspec22, Lgra22, and Lsam22.
Offering a comprehensive overview of the subject's material learning environment, the book discusses the planning and design of Home Economics classrooms, physical and technical infrastructure, kitchen equipment, storage, safety procedures, and teaching materials. Together, these elements form the foundation for high-quality education. This publication follows Material Framework for Home Economics and precedes the final volume in the trilogy, Structural Framework for Home Economics.
