Description: MinecraftEDU is a modified version of Minecraft designed for classroom teachers. In it, teachers have "superpowers" to place limits on student behavior (like no TNT or PVP - "player versus player" attacks). Minecraft is a popular and extremely adaptable "sandbox game" which can be used in a variety of ways to help students build models, colalborate, problem solve, and demonstrate their understanding of curriculum topics. In this session we will explore the features of MinecraftEDU, discuss how to get started, and several lesson ideas to use with students in the classroom or in after-school club time.
