<span>Dear Prof. Meijers,</span></div>
<div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">
<span>This is a very interesting concept. So 4 students independently contributed (without mutual discussion etc) to the project and made up the story. Like it. Thank you for sharing.</span></div>

<div>I teach an online course in Alice to year 5 & 6 students (10-12 yr olds) in schools across Tasmania (Australia) as part of an extension curriculum. The students have only started using Alice in March this year, so their skills are still very basic, but
I thought others might be interested in a very successful collaborative project I've just done. It was called Pass It On, and basically it had 4 rounds, where each round the projects were passed on by me to a student in a different school.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Week 1: Students all designed an Alice scene and sent it to me. I then sent the project on to the next student in a different school.</div>
<div>Week 2: Students had to code a story starter.</div>
<div>Week 3: Students added a story middle</div>
<div>Week 4: Students add a story ending.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So in the end, each project had been completed by four different students from four different schools. The kids really loved it, and it was a great way for them to learn from each other as they looked at the code that each previous student had added in.</div>
<div><br>
