contents Working in the general context of "modules with an additive dimension," we complete the determination of the minimal dimension of a faithful Alt(n)-module and classify those modules in three of the exceptional cases: 2-dimensional Alt(5)-modules in characteristic 2, 3-dimensional Alt(5)-modules in characteristic 5, and 3-dimensional Alt(6)-modules in characteristic 3. We also highlight the remaining work needed to complete the classification of the faithful Alt(n)-modules of minimal dimension for all n; these open problems seem well suited as projects for advanced undergraduate or master's students.
