Judson,

You should give serious consideration to using MicroWorlds 2.0 for the
Mac from LCSI. It contains a very powerful Logo in an environment that
will allow your students to work on an endless variety of projects across
many disciplines.

Contact LCSI at 800-321-LOGO or INFO@LCSI.CA for more info.
