That indeed used to happen in the 1990s and it had a big impact on my life. We used to get about 30 minutes of computer time twice a month. One of my favourite activities during that time was to try and draw interesting shapes and share the code with my teachers and friends.
I remember I was particularly proud of drawing a simple house with an animated dashed border. Since we did not have hard disks yet and floppy disks were very limited in number, our computer teacher helped with quickly transcribing the code from screen onto a paper, so that we don't lose the program I had just written and demonstrated to others.
I have written a blog post about my happy little experience with Logo programming, in case anyone wants to read more about it: https://susam.net/blog/fd-100.html https://susam.net/blog/fd-100.html
