I remember when I was about 13 or 14 we would have this little program in Windows that allowed us to move a turtle around and draw shapes with the turtle. You were able to write little programs in code to move the turtle around and draw more complicated shapes in a shorter amount of time.
We were doing all this in pure Greek, and writing the programs in Greek.
In retrospect, I believe this was one of the worst things we did. Sure, it lowered the bar for students struggling with English to start programming. But given how there is nearly 0 useful documentation on programming or on programming languages in Greek, you were essentially tied to this little program with the turtle. You had absolutely no ability to progress your computing knowledge.
