Evaluate vs Start/Continue button

I'm trying to help my daughter who just started a computer science class.  I know the very basics of python but never used Wing-IDE.

Her instructions state to def a function and then hit the green play button.  Then go to the Python shell and type the function to see the output.  This doesn't work.  She states she saw this happen in class.  Work fine using the evaluate command.  Am I missing something?  Could they have remapped the school play buttons to run evaluate instead?
