Computer Literacy Understanding Through Community History

The Open University has worked in partnership with the Living Archive, an independent documentary arts organisation based in Wolverton (Milton Keynes), to run a highly-successful and ground-breaking Millennium Award Scheme called CLUTCH - Computer Literacy Understanding Through Community History. Supported by the Millennium Commission from National Lottery funding, the scheme provided free web-based ICT training and support for over 300 parents of local school-aged children to complete a local history project of their choosing. The work of the resulting 60 school-based CLUTCH Clubs can be seen by visiting the main CLUTCH Club Millennium Award Scheme homepage.

Participant(s): Tom Vincent, Shamus Foster, Jane Whild, Chris Valentine, Kevin Quick, Colin Barrett, Sarah Sutcliffe and Damian Dadswell
