No Virtual DICE for 2025/26
We’re not planning to refresh Virtual DICE for 2025/26, because of resource constraints.
Last year’s version is still available, but its software will be at least a year out of date compared to proper DICE.
If this is a significant problem for you, please let us know.
Virtual DICE comes in two editions. This page should help you to decide which one you want.
Teaching edition
This is for first and second year undergraduate students. It should contain the software which these students are likely to need for their coursework.
If you're not sure which edition you want, choose this one.
The teaching edition is distributed in an image file called teaching.ova.
Basic edition
This does not contain teaching software - it's just basic DICE Ubuntu Linux. This edition may be of interest to people who want to add their own software to Virtual DICE and customise it to their tastes. It's smaller, and thus quicker to download, than the teaching edition.
The basic edition is distributed in an image file called basic.ova.
