Jackie Carter This paper* will report on the development of learning and teaching resources that have been produced throughout the first phase of the CHCC project http://www.chcc.ac.uk, for the Historical and Contemporary Censuses Collection. Learning materials ('units'), covering the whole spectrum of census topics, are being developed both by the project team and commissioned from distinguished authors who have used Census data in their teaching. The units will encourage a 'pick and mix' approach, enabling lecturers to choose a selection for online or classroom based teaching. This approach allows lecturers to choose from a portion of a single unit to several units built into a module. Such flexibility was a key requirement behind the development of the units. As a response to feedback from an initial consultation workshop in January 2001, teachers and lecturers can customise the units locally, ensuring credit is given to the original author of the materials. * Note that three other papers are being submitted to IASSIST 2002 by other members of the project team.
