alice-teacher Google Chrome Book

[Pigatt, Yvonne]

You may want to research Virtual Private Network.

There are free VPNs - review article at pcmag.com<http://pcmag.com>.

Students can then access the VPN     Where you have installed Alice.

I work at a college and we provide VPN access to our students.

I am having the same issue - i agree that Alice is the best tool for this, and am trying a work-around for Chromebooks.

You can run Linux on a Chromebbok with tools like Crouton -

- and then should be able to run Alice 2 or 3 from there. My high school also just issued Chromebooks to every student. Fortunately, the computer labs are still PCs and MACs, so we are OK in school. To be honest, I haven't tried this yet, but have spoken to several who have, and plan to try this solution this week.

Hi:

Many of the schools I work with have or about to purchase Google Chrome Books . For those of us who work in higher education and work with PK-12 schools, there has been a dramatic shift in hardware to Chrome Books.

Does  anyone know a work around to get Alice downloaded on Chrome Books?  I spoke to a couple of my contacts at Google and they say I should use their products found in Coding with Chrome<https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/coding-with-chrome/becloognjehhioodmnimnehjcibkloed?hl=en-US> which is fine, but I think Alice is the best program to get teachers and students interested in programming.
