Installing and using Scheme:

You can use the OCW instructions for installing Scheme. If you have problems, start a thread in the class forum and someone may be able to help.

Troubleshooting the installation : If you're on Ubuntu, these links may be useful if you run into errors using the installation instructions above.

"Not enough memory for this configuration"

Set custom directory for projects

MIT has a good intro document called Don't Panic (PDF) which is helpful if you're using the Edwin editor and are new to Scheme. It's a lot different from a normal text editor.
