            Abstract : 
Summary form only given. Instructors often ignore or diminish the inclusion of history in computing when teaching courses. This is unfortunate, because students and teachers can learn much from the history of computing. In this paper, the authors present several models that instructors can use to place history as a curriculum component. They share their findings and provide handout summaries for comment, discussion and feedback. The authors strongly encourage audience participation and interaction
