Projecting computing history: A hybrid live-virtual visit to the national museum of computing

History and travel are valuable components for building cultural awareness and preparing students to work in a global economy. In many STEM disciplines history is an intrinsic component of the pedagogy, serving to bind students to the professional community and culture. Computing, in contrast, has not systematically embedded historical awareness into the curriculum. As a step toward exposing students to computing history and enhancing cultural awareness, this work profiles a collaborative effort to take classes on a virtual field trip to The National Museum of Computing in the UK, with live faculty interaction across international borders.
