	Programming Languages Directory \| LOGO Programming Language
		Logo was developed by a team from MIT, Logo was originally designed to introduce children to programming concepts, to develop better thinking skills that could be transferred to other contexts.
		Logo was supposed to be a language for the teaching of mathe matical ideas to children through computer programming.
		Logo and language can be taught in small increments, beginning with concrete and graphic things, and can progress to words and more abstract concepts.

	The Logo Programming Language
		Logo programs are usually collections of small procedures.
		Programming in Logo is done by adding to its vocabulary, teaching it new words in terms of words it already knows.
		Many programming languages are pretty strict about wanting to know exactly what kind of data you claim to be using.

	enGauge Resources—Classroom Resources (Logo Web Site)
		Logo can be used to develop virtual simulations and multimedia presentation environments, and through the use of "turtles," virtual reality artificial intelligence robots created using the language, students and educators can investigate questions in mathematics, reading, the visual and performing arts, science, and social studies.
		According to the site, the Logo programming environments that have been developed over the past 28 years for use in these areas are rooted in constructivist educational philosophy and are designed to support constructive learning.
		In conclusion, use of the Logo programming language appears promising for the development of higher-order thinking skills through the use of engaged learning activities, especially since it can be used to create flexible and interactive learning environments.

		With the Logo programming language, users can assemble complex programs and procedures using simple computer language and can access graphical features of the computer by controlling an on-screen element known as a "turtle." The software can also be used for exploring robotics with a real hardware "turtle.
		Logo was developed in the late 1960s as a way to introduce lay computer users to concepts of programming and to allow users to easily explore concepts of logic, mathematics and the sciences.
		The MIT Logo Group implemented Logo software for the Apple II and Texas Instruments TI 99/4A home computers in the early 1980s and the language was used extensively in elementary and middle school settings.

		Yellow Brick Logo is a text based programming language created by Fred Martin and Brian Silverman at the MIT Media Lab.
		It is based on the Logo programming language used in the LCSI (Logo Computer Systems Incorporated) program "MicroWorlds." This programming language was originally conceived by Seymour Papert in the late 1970's while at MIT.
		Although the programming is difficult at this stage of development the excitement of creating a working robot and the desire to make it work overcomes the challenge.

	Logo Language
		Logo is an interesting programming language, designed by SeymourPapert for children, once much used in schools, and never fully appreciated.
		Logo looks like it's about manipulating a triangle on the screen (or a robot on the floor) that can leave a mark behind it, with the intention of drawing pictures.
		Instead you have to use a special language with commands like "switch to the environment of the procedure that called this one." In Logo, when an error happens you can pause your program and type ordinary Logo expressions in an environment in which all the relevant variables are available.
