1998, a starter

The wonderfully talented Year 13 A Level Computer Science class that I teach weren’t quite sure what to make of my scrawled starter question: what happened in 1998?

They made some great suggestions (considering that this occurred comprehensively before their birth!), but what I remember of 1998  is that the idea started to formulate in my mind that not everyone was going to grasp what computers were all about in time to join the rapidly approaching Twenty First Century.

Flickernet arrived in December 1999.

Twenty years on it is clear to me that the need for Computer Education, in all its forms, is as urgent today as it was back then.
