What came after HAL, the computer from Stanley Kubrick's '2001: A Space Odyssey'? IBM. (I comes after H, B comes after A, M comes after L.) Clever nomenclature, isn't it? It's also an interesting Logo exploration that can help to reinforce notions of alphabetic sequence and phonetic analysis.

For some, the inexplicable peace and beauty of snow outweigh the inconvenience it can cause. But did you ever suspect that a snowflake could both postpone AND inspire math lessons using Logo?

You've probably heard the saying, "History repeats itself". Perhaps it would be more accurate to say "History recurs". What is the difference? This article discusses the answer to that question as it applies to Logo, and how the concept can be used in the classroom.

This article discusses "fun" Logo classroom activities. Fun can be worked into any traditional curriculum, from kindergarten through graduate school. Making an activity fun is an excellent way to motivate learning in all traditional subject areas.
Time For A Challenge, Judi Harris
Time For A Challenge, Judi Harris
School of Education Articles
"Rich problems" make the best Logo projects. As your students (and you!) write Logo procedures that translate their patterns into computer activities, ideas for projects spring to mind. As you work on these new challenges, "idea reproduction" continues. Investigation into these broad areas of interdisciplinary, intrinsically fascinating inquiry reveal what Papert calls powerful ideas. The subject's inherent patterns provide the pliable mess of material; Logo's structure encourages "messing around" in search of patterns and structures.

Syllabicalexicopology is the study of word meanings by systematic syllabication and syllableanalysis. The exploration of complex words with Logo can make vocabulary study more meaningful.

We are all familiar with the facilitative effects of kinesthetic experiences of abstract concepts for learners. Encouraging children to "play turtle" as an integral part of the Logo graphics problem solving process is probably a well-established part of your "facilitator's repertoire" by now. Why not capitalize upon this symbiotic relationship between cognitive and physical activity.

Fractional relationships are difficult for students to understand. Perhaps this is because there are few non-contrived "real-life" situations that can be used as effective models for instruction of these somewhat abstruse concepts. Yet, there is a motivating, easily understandable, culturally relevant microworld which quite naturally utilizes fractional relationships and operations: Music!

If "growing up" means losing the joyful, experimentative, problem-solving flexibility that is innately childlike, then we Logo-ers must reserve a special corner of our personalities that will never "mature". Chances are you have already done that, and your love for Logo stems partly from the opportunity that it affords to exercise the "never-neverland" option. This article discusses classroom activities related to Logo.

Like nearly all of the current subjects of instruction at the College of William and Mary, Biology naturally traces back into departments under other names. Meager as must have been the teaching during the early years in any of the fields specifically mentioned in the Charter granted in 1693 by the British sovereigns, certainly some matter within our :present field was contemplated in the listing of objects mentioned in the preamble of the Charter: " ... to the end ... that the youth may be piously educated in good letters and manners .. . to make, found and establish a …
