One would think so! It was taught at our school (didn't take the course myself, about 15 years old at the time) and I only remember my classmates complaining, that it was boring. Some of them wanted to learn "real programming" instead. Drawing shapes with a turtle felt overly childish and pedagogic even then.
- piracy1 6y agoI think it's a good introduction but would be very boring to stay focused on for any length of time. But my first thought upon seeing this was if someone, especially a younger person wanted to go from 0 knowledge of programming to a little bit, just get the idea of what it's like so they can see it's not magic, this would be a great start.
- Wowfunhappy 6y agoI think 15 is too old to teach Logo. It works better when the kids are ten years old or so.
