So I was wondering if it would be <BR>>better for me to take Alice 2, Alice 3, or both. I'm a beginner and have <BR>>very little experience with Alice. <BR>> <BR>>Thanks <BR>>Susan Stein <BR>> <BR>>> Don Slater <?xml:namespace prefix = mailto /><mailto:djslater107@gmail.com><BR>>> May 7, 2014 at 8:15 AM <BR>>> June 28th-July 2th, Carnegie Mellon, Pittsburgh, PA <BR>>> <BR>>> Registration Page: <BR>>> https://web.campusservices.cmu.edu/conferences/registration.taf?ID=2014alice <BR>>> <BR>>> Carnegie Mellon will host an Alice 2.4 Institute for middle/high <BR>>> school and college instructors. Alice,an innovative 3D programming <BR>>> environment developed at Carnegie Mellon University, is designed as an <BR>>> instructional tool for teaching and learning computational thinking <BR>>> and introductory programming concepts. With Alice, students learn <BR>>> fundamental programming concepts in the context of creating <BR>>> animations, videos, and simple games. <BR>>> <BR>>> Alice 2.4 features a new set of 3D models from the Garfield? comics, <BR>>> courtesy of Paws, Inc. This workshop will explore the Alice 2.4 <BR>>> programming environment as an effective and engaging tool to introduce <BR>>> students in middle school through first-year college to fundamental <BR>>> programming concepts and Computer Science. We will also explore how <BR>>> Alice 2.4 can be used in multidisciplinary K-12 classroom settings. <BR>>> <BR>>> This workshop will be presented by nationally recognized curriculum <BR>>> experts in Alice. <BR>>> <BR>>> _______________________________________________ <BR>>> alice-teachers mailing list <BR>>> alice-teachers@lists.andrew.cmu.edu <BR>>> https://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/mailman/listinfo/alice-teachers <BR>>-------------- next part -------------- <BR>>An HTML attachment was scrubbed... <BR>>URL: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/alice-teachers/attachments/20140507/a01769b0/attachment.html <BR>>-------------- next part -------------- <BR>>A non-text attachment was scrubbed... <BR>>Name: postbox-contact.jpg <BR>>Type: image/jpeg <BR>>Size: 1181 bytes <BR>>Desc: not available <BR>>Url : http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/alice-teachers/attachments/20140507/a01769b0/attachment.jpg <BR>>-------------- next part -------------- <BR>>A non-text attachment was scrubbed... <BR>>Name: image.png <BR>>Type: image/png <BR>>Size: 1342556 bytes <BR>>Desc: not available <BR>>Url : http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/alice-teachers/attachments/20140507/a01769b0/attachment.png <BR>> <BR>>------------------------------ <BR>> <BR>>_______________________________________________ <BR>>alice-teachers mailing list <BR>>alice-teachers@lists.andrew.cmu.edu <BR>>https://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/mailman/listinfo/alice-teachers <BR>> <BR>> <BR>>End of alice-teachers Digest, Vol 46, Issue 5 <BR>>********************************************* <BR></P></mailto:djslater107@gmail.com></BODY>
