6. What did You Learn?

7. Other learn how to use Alice
Use Methods
Drag method names from the details window Methods area
to world.my first method
Can Group Methods
Do in order
One after the other
Or Do together
At the same time
You built an Alice-like environment that can be used by others to program
Other learn how to use Alice

8. Why Come to Class?
Is it worthwhile to give a lecture if the recording of the lecture is available?
If no, what should we use lecture time for?
Quiz?
More recitation like assignments? (will take time from projects)
Help solve project problems?
