%X The European project ¡°Early Technical Education¡± seeks to promote technical education for children, encouraging them in the understanding of scientific-technological phenomena.To this end, it was endeavoured to develop children-targeted pedagogical material to be applied in the initial and continuous training of Pr¨¦-primary and Primary Education teachers and duly based on teaching-learning methodological approaches that comprise the fields of Education and Technology. As a result, a digital manual was prepared with didactic resources on-line (http://www.earlytechnicaleducation.org).In this article, besides introducing the Project and the site, we also refer to case studies which have taken place in Portugal, namely the evaluation of some of the options indicated in the manual.
