If universities produce computer scientists and not just programmers, then the exposure to FP as well as OOP is important. But for high school, your assessment concerning Revolution seems right to me. > There is no printed matter for metacard or Revolution, which fits to the > situation of my pupils. We home school at our house. My 11-year-old son is good at mathematics and technical things. I told him that I wanted him to augment his math with some reading or programming. He went with programming. I gave him some options including some that related to his interests in robots and in games. The choices included Revolution and Logo. Though he was tempted by Revolution, he went with Logo. Why? Primarily, because a wide range of materials are available for people at his level. So, in my limited experience, I think you are right, a good text suitable for high school is needed.
