alice-teacher s Digest, Vol 65, Issue 11

[Jennifer Leaver]

Oh, how I would LOVE to attend this!  Any chance to have an online webinar
or training for this exact course?  I'm transitioning my class from Alice 2
to Alice 3 in order to prep them for Java next year, but I have absolutely
ZERO experience with Java and really don't know where to begin or what
needs to be ordered for the class.  Any guidance would be GREATLY
appreciated!!!!!
