I had the same experience. We used logo in elementary school on Apple IIes and I thought we were just "learning computers." Looking back I realize that one teacher went out of her way to teach us something useful with the oudated hardware available (this was in 1992). Other teachers of the same class just let us play around with a print shop program, and in junior high we had a computer class which was just typing practice, again using Apple IIes. They were old and unmaintained, they didn't even have software available -we had to type into the command prompt for 45 minutes. In high school I took a computer science course, but quickly dropped it because it started us off with word and excel. It wasn't until undergrad that I was exposed to programming again properly again and realized what logo and that teacher actually was trying to us. I wish subsequent teachers had kept going in that direction.
