I had a similar experience 20 years prior, replacing HyperCard with Logo and the iMac with Apple IIe (aka //e.)

The class was very rigid, giving us instructions on what to do.

However, a few of us deviated from the rules and enjoyed learning on our own, finishing the assignments quicker just so we could try out new things.

Of course we got in trouble in class, but many of these same students got into trouble in other classes. (I tended to ask too many questions, I believe I was told.)
