Computing

History
Interview a family member to find out what has changed during their lifetime. Think about what you would like to find out about.....
- their holidays from their childhood
- how Exeter or our local beaches have changed
- how transport has improved
- how communication has changed, including how devices help us
- maybe you'd like to find out some family history.
You could video your interview to record their answers, or make notes together. You could ask some questions like these:
- When you were little, what sorts of things would you do for fun, at home or on holiday? What were your favourite toys and games?
- How did you communicate with people who didn’t live near you?
- Do you have any photos of when you were a child? Tell me what is special and interesting about the photo.
