Abstract
The external motivation to organize a conference on Informatics in Secondary Schools with specific focus on the Evolution and Perspective of School Informatics was an anniversary. 1985 informatics instruction was introduced in secondary acade mic schools (AHS) in Austria as an independent subject. It encompassed two credit hours of basic informatics instruction in the 5th form (age group 14 – 15 years old) and possible electives thereafter. A few years later, electives in informatics could be chosen even at lower grades.
