Summary
Digital photograph of Dr. Colin Fox working on computation with student, George Proimos at the Sunrise School at Melbourne Museum. Colin was a great contributor to the early Sunrise work as a very creative mathematician. His understanding of mathematics allowed him to work with new representations of profound mathematical ideas in a way that enabled students to understand the principles.
Photograph was taken by Liddy Nevile.
These students and teachers from Princes Hill Secondary College were selected to participate in the exploratory computing classroom which ran from 1988-1989 at Melbourne Museum. This digital image forms part of the Sunrise Collection which includes educational robots, software and multimedia recordings of teachers and students exploring new possibilities with computer programming.
