Abstract

A microworld designed for use in number theoretic investigations is described. This microworld, bunny numerics, is being used to complement the workhorse turtle geometry microworld in a Logo based problem solving course that we have recently initiated at SUNY Oswego. The microworld is defined, examples of its use are provided, suggestions for its use are offered, and a few notes on its implementation are made.
