alice-teacher Middle School Programming Contest

[CATHERINE TOMBASCO]

My state, Pennsylvania, has a Middle School Computer Fair.  There may be something like it where you live.

Subject: alice-teacher Middle School Programming Contest

Just wanted to reach out and see if anyone knew of any computer programming competitions that were available for elementary or specifically middle school that does not involve robotics. STEM has many, but I haven’t seen anything for just programming. Any suggestions?

I have been teaching Alice 2 for quite a few years and I am beta testing Alice 3 this year with a few students. I am really excited about using Alice 3/Java in my classes next year after taking the Alice 3 summer workshop. (Thank you Don and Wanda, it really helped in building my curriculum ! It’s an ongoing project and I’m loving every minute of it !)

Any help would be appreciated,
