alice-teacher Alice 3.1 Gallery

[Forsyth, Allen]

I want to say how impressed I am with this gallery.  I use Alice 2.3 and have deliberately stayed away from the 3.0 versions, feeling that they are designed for the high school level - and beyond!  I wonder if I need to expose our kids to this, Don, as it has a far more elegant look to it.  Am I going too far if I do?  

Are there any other middle level teachers using Alice?  I have used it for five years and the students catch on VERY quickly and do wonderful things with it.  I believe that there could be an excellent three year progression with it, however, from basic Alice entry use all the way to Java.

See the current contents of the new Alice 3.1 Gallery. See the blog of our lead character artist, Laura Paoletti, the Art of Alice, showing the work involved in creating the models in the Alice 3.1 Gallery.

You should know that the Alice 3.1 Gallery is different from the Alice 2 Gallery in that it is not possible to download the models that are displayed.

The Gallery for Alice 3 is fundamentally different, in keeping with the Alice 3 emphasis on object-oriented programming and the transition to Java. This set of web pages will always display the current contents of the Alice 3 Gallery so that users of Alice have an way to browsing the Gallery for characters and props other than from only within Alice 3.

Later,
