Stove Maker, Stove User is the second educational resource pack in ITDG’s Global Contexts for the National Curriculum , a series designed for use singly or together within the technology department or as a cross curricular project. Stove Maker, Stove User provides comparable information to Rural Blacksmith, Rural Businessman , the first in the series, for KS3. The lack of adequate energy supplies for cooking, that face rural people in Sri Lanka are described through a case study that examines the household requirements of a family of potters. Energy is vital not just for their household needs (cooking, cleaning etc) but also in their work as potters and potential stovemakers.
