<h1>Inanimate Alice meets Hackasaurus</h1>
<p>A user generated digital novel and Hackasaurus X-ray Goggles, what better tools to engage the future generation of webmakers! The mission is to teach the basics of coding through the lens of youth interest in storytelling. This challenge invites youth to creative a narrative based on characters and a storyline they create, while learning how to remix the web.</p>
<h2>How it's done</h2>
<ul>
<li>Dive into an existing episode of <a href="http://www.inanimatealice.com/">Inanimate Alice</a>.</li>
<li>Install the Hackasaurus <a href="http://hackasaurus.org/goggles/">X-ray Goggles</a>.</li>
<li>Work with youth to outline their own chapter. Here are some things to think about:
<ul>
<li><strong>Character.</strong> It could be Alice, it could be anyone!</li>
<li><strong>Location.</strong> Pick a country, any country!</li>
<li><strong>What happens next.</strong> Is it a mystery the character is trying to solve, new friends the character meets, something new the character learns?</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
