EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from September 1962, we are transported back to a time when innovation and technology were shaping the future of education. Meet Sarah Stacey, a bright-eyed 13-year-old student from Reading, who finds herself at the forefront of an educational revolution. Standing beside her is the remarkable International Tutor Machines (ITM), a groundbreaking teaching tool that would forever change the way students learn. The ITM, also known as Grundytutor, was designed by a British firm and hailed as the first of its kind in existence. This electro-mechanically operated back projector utilized cutting-edge 35mm microfilm technology to deliver lessons like never before. As Sarah gazes at this marvel of engineering, one can only imagine her excitement and curiosity about what lies ahead. This snapshot captures not just Sarah's journey but also reflects the spirit of progress in education during the 1960s. The integration of computers into classrooms was still in its infancy, yet pioneers like Sarah had already begun reaping its benefits. This image symbolizes how learning transcends traditional boundaries and embraces new possibilities. Doreen Spooner's lens immortalizes this momentous occasion where pupils become acquainted with machines that would shape their academic futures. It serves as a reminder that education is ever-evolving; it adapts to societal needs while empowering young minds to explore uncharted territories. As we look upon this photograph today, let us celebrate both Sarah's pioneering spirit and our collective commitment to pushing boundaries in pursuit
