A Spotlight Southwest news item from around 1972. Mike Whitmarsh reports on some innovative computer teaching with the school's Head of Maths, Rosemary Fraser. Tavistock Compehensive had recently won an industry competition. It was called the "Dial-a-Computer" competition, and it was jointly organised by New Scientist and G.E.I.S. (General Electric Information Services). The goal of the contest was to find the most original and practical ideas for using a computer time-sharing service. Here are a few interesting details about the competition and what was won: The Prize: There were six winners in total. Each winner received a remote computer terminal and £1,000 worth of free computer time—a massive sum for computing resources in 1970! The Tech: The General Post Office (GPO) sponsored the connectivity by providing the modems, exchange lines, and up to £300 worth of telephone calls so the winners could actually dial into the remote mainframe computer. The Winning Projects: Historical records from 1970 confirm that the winning entries included a physicist studying air pollution, an archaeologist cataloging classical mosaics, an animator drawing cartoons, and crucially, projects focused on education. Specifically, winning entries included plans for "rationalising school activities" and "teaching children the principles of computing" through business games, war games, cribbage, and rummy. This news item comes from a time when adequate time was devoted to the subject and not 'dumbed down' which is a sad observation on more recent journalism. An interesting bit of computing and education history when Britain had visionaries pushing for the introduction of computing into the curriculum. .......any ex students from the school out there who can reply in the comments ??
