Originally Logo created a software tool that allowed students to build knowledge according to constructionist ideas of Piaget. Robots like Roamer and Turtles made concrete the abstract ideas expressed on the computer. |
 |
With Logo you act (program) in the virtual world of the computer and see its effects in physical world through the action of the robot. With Roamer you act and see the results directly in the physical environment. |
 |
Roamer and RoamerWorld offer a new paradigm. You act in both the physical and virtual world and compare the difference. |
