Tell your story...

A place to tell your story about learning with technology.

Please tell us your story about your experience with educational computing here - it may be in any context, at any time and at any level and may not be connected directly to the use of a computer. Some stories will be about policy, others about classrooms. Yet more will be about magical moments of understanding or even barriers that prevented progress.

If you have any photos or materials which help illustrate your story, consider sending them to enhance the archive.

Does the content on this page remind you of your own experiences? Please tell us your story to enrich this archive!

The archive is directed and maintained by Richard Millwood of Core Education UK supported by Sandra Crapper, Maureen Gurr, Margaret Cox, Nick Rushby and Joy Hooper. The British Educational Suppliers Association (BESA) were archive sponsors in 2008 and Becta were sponsors in 2009. Much of the archive was gathered in the years 1990 - 2006 by Prof Stephen Heppell with Richard Millwood and stored at Ultralab at Anglia Ruskin University in Chelmsford. In its early days it was catalogued by Greta Mladenova and in 2006 Rex Wingate helped to organise the items in store. More recently, since 2011, Doreen Wright, Nick Rushby, Chris Monk and Joy Hooper have been helping catalogue the materials and develop policies.
