By using Minecraft as a platform for learning,

educators can motivate and inspire every student to

achieve more, and ignite a passion for learning.

“If we want to change education and learning to make

it more relevant, more effective and more enjoyable

for all involved, teachers need to be the

entrepreneurial designers and redesigners of the

“systems” of schools and of the schools themselves.”

Design Thinking for Educators

IDEO

Minecraft: Education Edition is designed for students to

play together – whether that’s working in teams to solve

a problem, or collaborating as an entire class complete

learning activities.

“To function effectively in increasingly complex

business structures and organizations, employees

must become more comfortable with ambiguity, take

initiative, and be able to work in a team-based

environment.”

Skills Requirements for Tomorrow's Jobs

IDC

There are no step-by-step instructions in Minecraft –

students must try, fail, and try again to achieve the result

they want. This open canvas encourages independence

and self-direction, where students are able to express

themselves and their ideas in unique ways.

“Imagination is the source of every form of human

achievement. Creativity is as important now in

education as literacy and we should treat it with the

same status”

Ken Robinson

Learning-by-doing in Minecraft teaches students

independence and perseverance, giving them great

satisfaction and sense of accomplishment when they can

demonstrate their knowledge

“Education is a natural process carried out by the child and is

not acquired by listening to words but by experiences in the

environment. And Education should no longer be mostly

imparting knowledge, but must take a new path – to seek the

release of human potential”

Maria Montessori

Students and educators use

Office 365 Education accounts

to log in to Minecraft:

Education Edition. This ensures

secure access to the game and

student data privacy. This also

ensures wherever, whenever

learning.

An entire classroom can play in

the world together, without any

need for an external server.

Using the “Friends” tab,

students can collaborate in

small or large learning groups

and create and learn together.

Border Blocks help teachers

define areas in the game that

their students can build and

play in.

The portfolio is a place where

students can save the

screenshots they’ve taken with

the Camera and add notes.

Educators and students can use

the locator map to keep track

of their work and to find their

friends and build together.

Minecraft: Education Edition requires:

• Operating System: Windows 10 or macOS

• Identity: Office 365 Education account for each player

• Network: Internet access required for login and multiplayer*
