Alice (http://www.alice.org) is an object-oriented, 3D programming environment for middle school students developed at Carnegie Mellon University. This class is an introduction to Alice and emphasizes both creativity and technology.
Students use Alice to build 3D storybook worlds and to add and control advanced interactions and animations of 3D models, using basic conditional programming.
Topics include objects, events, logic, control structures, and orienting and moving 3D images.
