[racket] trouble with draw.ss teachpack

1. The draw teachpack should be used with the HtDP teaching languages only. 

I just did so and the following program runs just fine in Beginning Student Language. 

(start 100 100)
(draw-circle (make-posn 30 30) 10 'blue)
;; there's nothing else in the Def area 

2.  I recommend shunting the first two chapters in HtDP in favor of

When I load the file, Racket complains when I make any reference to the "posn" struct (which is essential to all of the drawing tools), saying that it hasn't been defined. If I change tactics and try to start from the standard "beginner's" language (which does include the necessary "posn" definitions) and then copy over and run the declarations from draw.ss, that produces a "module not defined" error. I'd appreciate any guidance.
