For courses in Introductory Programming for Java and Alice Learn programming basics in a creative context that's more engaging and less complicated Taking a computer programming course can be challenging, time-consuming, and downright frustrating-but there's a better way. Alice 3 to Java: Learning Creative Programming through Storytelling and Gaming, First Edition introduces readers to programming in a creative context that's more engaging and less complicated, while still covering all the essential concepts you'd expect to see in an introductory programming course. Readers are invited to step into the world of creating 3D animations through chapters that present programming concepts with hands-on examples. Throughout the text, readers create a short story or game centered on Lawrence Prenderghast's Haunted Circus, a story by Laura Paoletti. Students bring the story to life through projects and exercises using Alice, an animation tool similar to professional software used by studios like Pixar and DreamWorks. Later in the book, students may apply what they've learned in Alice to using Java, a professional, production-level programming course.

The Javaa cents programming language can be challenging for novice computer programmers with limited experience in object-oriented programming. To ease students into Java, Programming with Alice and Java intertwines the ideas of object-oriented programming in both languages. Programming in Alice is explored first to establish fundamental principles and skills using 3D animations in a fun, visually rich environment. The remaining chapters implement concepts in the Java programming language using interesting examples and drawing parallels between the two languages to keep students engaged.

For introductory computing and programming courses at four-year and community colleges. This new text uses Alice and Media Computation to introduce students to the #1 programming language in use today. Exploring Wonderland: Java Programming Using Alice and Media Computation, uses Alice to introduce the fundamental concepts of programming, thereby decreasing early frustration with syntax errors usually encountered in a text editor. The concepts introduced in Alice are then applied in Java using Media Computation examples (working with sound samples and pictures). This approach is highly motivating to students, especially for those without prior programming experience.
