Note about downloading Alice worlds

Most likely your computer does not know what an Alice world file is, with extention .a2w. If the Alice world you download is called story.a2w, your computer may think it is a .zip file and rename it to story.zip or story.a2w.zip. DO NOT unpack it or extract files, but instead rename it back to story.a2w.

Alice Tutorials

These tutorials were developed from an Alice workshop held in summer 2009. Most of the tutorials are here, we may add a few more. The tutorials are organized by topics. There are two groups, the first is called "getting started" and the second is "more tutorials".

Alice Videos

Here are some example Alice Videos that show you what Alice is capable of. Supported formats include .mov and .avi files. You may not be able to play these on your computer and may need to download quicktime.

Alice Example Worlds

Here are example worlds we developed for the Workshop on Alice for Middle school and High School teachers held in Summers 2008 and 2009 at Duke University. We may still be putting up a few more examples.

Note that most of these worlds were written on PC. Some worlds may look a little different when run on a Mac. If you do not have alice on your computer, you can still get a sense of what happens in the world by looking at the description page provided with each example.
