Following a brief introduction to the LOGO programing language, describes its use in a sixth-grade classroom. The situations described illustrate students' growth while the choice of the situations illustrates teachers' growth. (JN)

Presents three activities in which students learn about and construct star polygons using the LOGO programing lanaguage. A list of suggested extension activities is included. (JN)

Presents a collection of problems focusing on: (1) squares in arithmetic and number theory; (2) squares in geometry; (3) topics blending arithmetic and geometric aspects of squares; and (4) squares and Logo. A sample student worksheet (with answers) is included. (JN)

Presented is an annotated list of 24 references on the LOGO programing language. The information provided is intended for classroom teachers and for researchers. Topics include use of the language in classroom situations, evaluation of a LOGO training program, the educational utility of LOGO, and others. (JN)

Describes a project in which 11- to 13-year-old children used their LOGO programing experience to assist them in investigating a mathematical topic. Students initially drew frieze patterns on graph paper and then wrote LOGO program. Implications of the project for mathematics instruction are noted. (JN)

Discussion of Logo use to teach children computer programing covers the educational theory behind Logo, how it differs from other programing languages, its educational promise, its graphics capabilities, Logo research, and different versions available. It is argued that educational computing will succeed only if it provides new ways of teaching.…

Described is a short program for teaching and learning about geometric transformations. The integration of geometry problem solving and BASIC programing is discussed. Applications of computer graphics are illustrated. (CW)

Discusses the golden ratio and how to make golden triangles using recursive Logo programs. Presents some outputs of the Penrose tile patterns. (YP)

Discusses dimensionality in Euclidean geometry. Presents methods to produce fractals using LOGO. Uses the idea of self-similarity. Included are program listings and suggested extension activities. (MVL)

Considers activities that use LOGO to slide, turn, and flip the "turtle." Uses non-LOGO tools such as cutouts, pattern blocks, and tangrams to enhance the motion work. Provides examples and programs with explanations. (MVL)

This document provides activities that teach seventh grade geometric concepts by using the LOGO programming language. The entire package consists of the printed text and an accompanying diskette which is integral to the program. The package contains 17 lessons; all but two of the activities contain a pre-activity reading, a pre-activity written…
