G9 Tech Class #32

Today we will experience how to create programs on a TI 93 Graphing Calculator. Please follow the links to view the exercises:

If you are able to use the specific programming instructions and you get to the expected results, take a picture of the calculator (& yourself if you want to) to add to your Process Journal as evidence! :-)


Continuing with what we began last class G9 Tech Class #31, we will move forward developing Investigate stage.

Remember to visit the official Alice Site and the Alice Blog to get started. You can download Alice from Download Alice 2.2 if you will be using your own laptop. Once it is installed, launch it and visit the Tutorial :-)

At this point, focus on the following parts of Investigation:


Continue looking into the following:
  • What is a programming language?
  • What is Alice?
  • Who created Alice?
  • What is Alice for?
  • When was Alice first released?
  • What is Alice's interface like?
  • What other Programming languages does Alice relate to?
  • How many versions have been released?
  • add your own questions... (at least 3 or 4)


For Investigation stage, please: 
  • Get in new groups with people who you have not worked with before
  • Use the listed questions (in red) as an introduction to Project 3: Investigation
  • When working on your Investigation stage  document, please remember to:
    1. What do you think you will learn during this project?
    2. Relate it to yourself, the society, AOIs
    3. Answer the questions to begin your research
    4. Add more questions
    5. Cite your sources
    6. Include your reflections on the two activities we did last class: Taboo & Giving the 'robot' instructions.
Don't forget to make your Process Journal journal entry of the day
