ABSTRACT
The Logo screen uses co-ordinates in four quadrants. Prior experience of defining positions on a grid with co-ordinates would be useful, though the Logo screen provides a useful means of introducing this. Any version of Logo will be appropriate for the Project, though some are more user-friendly than others. SuperLogo (Logotron) has been used for the examples, which has recently been superseded by Imagine Logo. The challenges take the form of shapes and designs graded for difficulty which the children can select. The potential of Logo is immense – to the extent that it can be the subject of study at undergraduate level. The challenges sheet (an example is provided on the CD-ROM) enables the children to select those challenges which they feel are appropriate for them. This Project develops the children's understanding of how ICT can be used to control events.
