Title: BBC releases Computer Literacy Project
Post by Dickie Mint on Jun 27^th, 2018, 6:59pm

Wow! Remember the BBC Micro and the Project that spawned it? It's all been released here
to quote:
"In the 1980s, the BBC explored the world of computing in The Computer Literacy Project. They commissioned a home computer (the BBC Micro) and taught viewers how to program.

The Computer Literacy Project chronicled a decade of information technology and was a milestone in the history of computing in Britain, helping to inspire a generation of coders.

This site contains all 146 of the original Computer Literacy Project programmes plus 121 related programmes, broken down into 2,509 categorised, searchable clips.

Oh those happy days at the frontier of home computing. I've still got one and I think it still works!

Richard, it was even after TA32!
