Basic Technology is a fundamental subject in the Junior Secondary School 3(JSS3) curriculum in Nigeria. It provides a crucial introduction to the principles and practical applications of technology in everyday life and future careers. It encompasses key topics such as technical drawing, materials and resources, energy and power, basic electricity, maintenance, and workshop practices.
