Intro to Programming in Alice 3 (4 of 7): Coding

In this video, we’ll have the user code the procedure for the witch to summon the dragon. The witch casts a spell, stirs the cauldron (magically), and the dragon appears.
In this 7-part video series, we will teach you how to program a world in Alice 3 in which a witch summons a dragon, celebrates, and flies away!

For this video series, you will need to download Alice 3.1 here: http://www.alice.org/index.php?page=downloads/download_alice3.1

Alice is a drag-and-drop object-based programming environment developed by a research team at Carnegie Mellon University. The skills and thought paradigms you learn here can be extended to studies of more difficult programming languages. Alice 3.1 is not a simple upgrade to Alice 2.3. Alice 3 is designed for older students (high school+) and is well used as part of a mediated transfer to programming in Java, as there is a plugin to convert Alice programs to Java.
