It is used as a European alternative to Logo. I assume it is the first programming language. For some example materials see Jon Nichol, Jonathan Briggs, and Jackie Dean (ed), Prolog, Children, and Students (New York: Nichols Publishing Co 1988). Wouldn't you have an easier time arguing for Logo? Leslie Burkholder
