alice-teacher question about contest

[Pat Sitaraman]

Dear Sandy,

I have used Alice in the US. This was few years ago. Now, I teach in China. I am planning to use Alice in Middle and High school classes. When I taught there was only one version of Alice. I want your suggestions regarding the use of different versions of Alice. Why, when and where should I use different versions. Please advice.  

Your brother in Christ,
Pat

When we were working on recursion, we did discover that a laptop can only process so many recursive calls at a time.  We took out a few recursive calls and the problem was solved.  So with that in mind, do I need to tell the students to worry about how many objects they put in their program or how long it is or anything like that?  Does anyone know of anything I need to warn the students of as they plan their projects?  Thank you!!!
