    This paper presents the design ofForge, a tool for teaching formal methods gradually. Forge is based on the widely-used Alloy language and analysis tool, but contains numerous improvements based on more than a decade of experience teaching Alloy to students. Although our focus has been on the classroom, many of the ideas in Forge likely also apply to training in industry. Forge offers aprogression of languagesthat improve the learning experience by only gradually increasing in expressive power. Forge supportscustom visualizationof its outputs, enabling the use of widely-understood domain-specific representations. Finally, Forge provides a variety oftesting featuresto ease the transition from programming to formal modeling. We present the motivation for and design of these aspects of Forge, and then provide a substantial evaluation based on multiple years of classroom use.
