I learned to program in Scheme more than 20 years ago in a month-long class
at MIT. The text was Structure and interpretation of Computer Programs,
which is available online at
<http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/full-text/book/book.html>

The book give quite a nice introduction to Scheme, with some useful simple
examples to get started with; you can run them all under guile.

The Guile documentation at gnu.org is also somewhat helpful.

 <http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/docs/docs.html>

There's a tutorial on this page that I've never tried; I had the SICP
material available in my background, so I just used that.

Hope this helps,

Carl
