Archive for History of ICT

Nostalgia… Do you have any ICT stories, images etc to share on the blog?

This short 6 minute film is an edition of ‘Making the Most of the Micro’ http://www.new-media-learning.org/bbc/The film is 25 years old and was the ‘gadget show’ of its time.I’m sure I remember watching it at just after midnight – I don’t think it was a mainstream programme! Find out more about the BBC Micro at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBC_Micro 

If you have any memories, photos or URLs of ICT as it used to be please do share them with this blog.  Please either add them to the discussion or email dsmith.havering@lgfl.net   

Looking back 25 years can help us reflect on the strategic direction the next 25 years might take.
