ZLogo Home ZLogo Mission What's New ... Privacy Policy Logo Programming For Kids ZLogo What is ZLogo? Screenshot Download Demo Version What is ZLogo? ZLogo is a graphical front end to the Logo programming language. You can see a screenshot here. Our testing of ZLogo has shown that the average learning curve for children ages 5 and 6 is a half hour! One of the great things about ZLogo is that the child does not know they are learning to "program" or "write code". The are able to manipulate a small world. A world that, while small, does not severely restrict the child's creativity and inquisitiveness. ZLogo is an extremely satisfying experience for children. In a world that is big and often out of their control ("sit here", "don't touch that", "sit down and be quite", etc) ZLogo allows them a world of their own creation to control and manipulate. The process of trying something (often just a shot in the dark) and slowly refining the commands to get the final result is wonderful to watch. A sight made even more wonderful by their complete lack of realization that they are learning valuable skills. One's inclination is to say "do you realize what you just did?"... but the explanation is often lost on the child, they are simply "trying to get things to work". The look on a child's face after accomplishing a task which just 10 minutes ago was considered "impossible" is priceless. It's what keeps teachers in the profession.

LOGO- A programming language for children All students will not be computer programmers but all students should know how to program. Bruce Cattanach Technology Educator Lakeview School Denville New Jersey 07834-3419 The Turtle Many others have documented the importance of Logo as a teaching tool for children. The purpose of this page is to share with you the lesson plans I have developed to work with 3rd and 4th grade students. These plans use Logo Writer for Macintosh as the program. This software is no longer available on the open market. The fifth grade students use MicroWorlds which uses Logo as a scripting language behind the interface. The plans are given in HTML and in Portable Document Format (PDF). HTML Plans for LogoWriter. PDF Plans for LogoWriter.

Tutorial Project 5: An Object-Oriented Logo Programming Document This project is focused principally on language-centric properties of Mathscript, and less so on screen design. In the project, we build a one-page Document called "Logo" . The finished version of this Document appears at the New Mathwright Library and Cafe ( http://www.mathwright.com ) and you may compare your results with it. This Document contains a small Command Language that you will create as you build the Document. Then your readers may use that to program environments that contain as many logo turtles as they like, each with their distinguished, and changeable attributes. Along the way, you will learn the Command Protocol that creates new commands and the Program Protocol that creates new programs, and you will learn how to package new Command and Program definitions in File Scripts . In the Document, these commands that you create are executed on the built-in Command line. Mathscript is an object-oriented language , and a logo turtle is an "object" for anyone's money. The structure of this Document makes use of MathScript's ability to build a functioning object hierarchy. You will learn how to define Classes, and how to instantiate (turtle) objects within those classes.

Cloning in Logo Programming Monika Tomcsányiová Comenius University Bratislava, Slovak Republic, +421 7 602 95 284, tomcsanyiova@fmph.uniba.sk Abstract Imagine is a new 32-bit implementation of Logo programming language. In addition to the standard commands and structures of Logo language, the authors have implemented objects and object operations. This enables us to create our own classes, define their properties and then create instances of such classes and work with them. However, we can also create one and only object and by cloning – simple clipboard copying – create a number of the same objects. In this way children as young as ten years can program several exciting games and at the same time become acquainted with a programming language that uses the newest trends in object-oriented programming. In this article we have described several ways of creating objects, instances, defining events that will be processed and we have also included several games that can be programmed using these methods. Keywords: object-oriented programming, simple games, Imagine, Logo

51. The Logo Programming Language In 1968 Papert developed the logo programming language as a way tointroduce children to computers. The logo programming language http://www.rit.edu/~sra1864/imm/finalproject/logo.html

Logo In 1968 Papert developed the Logo programming language as a way to introduce children to computers. The Logo programming language involves a turtle on the screen that can be told to draw shapes and patterns with certain commands that are input by the user. These commands can either be input one at a time, or they can be set up in a program like fashion so the turtle can run through all the commands at once. In the late 1960’s and early 1970’s most people were not familiar with Logo, but by the early 1980’s many schools were using the Logo programming language as the main teaching tool in many of their computer classes. Logo provided a way for children to interact with computers and not only learn about programming, shapes, and numbers, but it also gave the child an opportunity to explore on their own and to see just what they could accomplish with the Logo programming language. Papert had successfully introduced computers to children and in doing this he opened up a whole new world. The computer was no longer only for adults in the workplace, but now for the first time children were using computers to both explore and have fun. At this same time, without realizing it, they were learning an amazing amount of information, not only about computers, but also about the ways in which they thought and how to improve their thinking skills. By the late 1990’s many schools has tossed out Logo in favor of teaching workplace applications to children. I know this is true at my elementary school because I wanted to get my brother’s opinion on what he had learned from Logo. He is six years younger than me and when I asked him about Logo he had no clue what I was talking about. He told me that in his computer classes he had learned how to use Microsoft Word and Power Point. In a 1996 interview Papert addressed this question.

Tech Learning Link Drawing Arcobaleno HOME BACK Programming by second grade students I gave this activity in programming and geometry to second grade students who have had a half-hour of programming in Logo once a week for a year. They know basic commands well and have been working on manipulating the Logo turtle in more advanced ways. Students always work in teams of two or three to encourage the concept of computing as a team effort; the blocks promote this and give the activity the feel of play.

Introduction to the LOGO Language by R. Barrett, B. DeRoos and L. Taylor THREE (3) SPECIAL WORK AREAS IN LOGO: The TURTLE SCREEN or Play Pen (Graphics Area) where the turtle draws with a pen taped to his middle. The COMMAND CENTER under the Play Pen. Use [Ctrl]U to go to the Play Pen and or [Ctrl]D to return to Command Center. You issue commands in the Command Center like FD 50 togo forward 50 steps. The PROCEDURE SCREEN of "Flip Side" i.e. the Turtle's memory. To go to Flip Side press [Ctrl] F and use the same keys to return to the play pen page. You put or write procedures here like TO BOX below. Then you can use the procedure in the Command Center by typing BOX. When you turn off the computer or get out of LOGO, you lose all the commands in the Command Center. Only procedures and the pictures in the Play Pen are saved when the page is saved. So I call the procedure page the Turtle's Mind because you can teach turtle things to do here and he will remember. SPECIAL KEYS: [Ctrl][Pause] STOP a turtle trip or a calculation.

We can see various thing at Lampang ceter here. T hen our site welcomes to students from downtown lampang. They join the non-formal style program for various reasons. Students, ranging from age of 14 to 40, came here every Sunday to try new things. They are always funny and energetic. L ast group are students from vocational high school. They learn how to fix motor-cycle back in the school, but at the workshop they become artists, drawing pictures, telling stories, even composing poems. L et's look at some of our sample project below.
