alice-teacher Games around Alice

[Jim Van Horn]

I am looking to create some para-Alice games for an initial introduction to the Alice application.  I was thinking about things like an "object scavenger hunt" where students or teams of students would try to find certain classes in the local gallery.  I thought maybe I could display an image and have the students try to find it in the local gallery.  It would start with the obvious ones and then increase in difficulty including classes that "aren't where they belong" - like aren't the buffalo in the animal class? The difficulty could also be increased by rotating an object of the class to a different pose.

Another "game" would be to have a team of students create a scene/world and then see how long it takes for other teams to duplicate the scene.

Has anyone created and used such games?
