Alice and Media Computation in Python for Glitch-ers

Betsy diSalvo has created a great project for engaging high school students in computing through teaching them to be video game testers – Glitch!. (See the project website at http://www.glitchtest.org) Mark Guzdial is helping them use some Media Computation in Alice, but in Python using JES. These are the slides and materials he developed in July 2009.

Mark's functions: myfunctions.py (Now including sound functions)
