We have been learning about a simple computer programming language called Logo that was developed at MIT as an educational aid for children. In Logo the cursor is a “turtle” who moves across the screen creating graphics based on the commands given by the children. We have learned some basic Logo commands, and students are beginning to write out programs (a series of commands) which they can then type into the computer to see the results. This project has generated a great deal of excitement in our group. It has also been our first time to use the new mobile laptop lab which has added to the excitement.
