<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:18pt">Hi. I haven't taught / used Alice in a few years, but have been asked to create a short non-credit course for the community college, for their Challenge Program: for adults with developmental disabilities.
(I have taught Intro to Web deign, Graphic Design, and other computer skills for this population). I thought these students would have a great time learning Alice 2.x and creating some fun animations. <u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:18pt">Does anyone possibly already have a curriculum they would suggest I use? The semester is: 10- 1.25 hour sessions.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
