Subject: Greetings from MWForum!

Just sending this along to help the process get started.  This semester I have 
been working with three college students using Logo.  One has produced a 
version of the Game of Life, another has created a program that types in Morse 
Code instead of alphabet letters.  Both were helped tremendously by feed back 
from this group.  The third student is creating a multi-page display of some 
of the things that MW can do, such as turtle math, geometry. word processing 
etc.  She calls it "turtle goes job hunting".  She is learning a lot.  Perhaps 
the most important thing she has learned so far is the concept of story 
boarding which she had never done.
     This summer, I will be helping with the Logo Summer Workshop in Montrose, 
Colorado.  This is sponsored by both the Logo Foundation and Mesa State 
College.  It is a one week immersion experience where you can explore MW or 
several different robotic platforms, including the Lego's Robolab, the 
Cricket, etc.  In the evenings we visit Ouray Colorado and the hot springs 
pool, tour gold  mines, visit the Black Canyon of the Gunnison River, and just 
in general have a great time.  Come see us.
