My first experience with Minecraft was surprisingly fun! I expected boredom and disappointment, but was impressed with the community aspect of the Java-script game. I am unsure how I would incorporate Minecraft into a secondary lesson plan, but I am open to investigate this further and learn more about the script and coding.
At first, I viewed Minecraft as another time-wasting, mind-numbing video/computer game. However, my viewpoint has changed a little. It does have some educational attributes. It enhances creativity, and promotes problem-solving and collaboration. From the guest speakers that visited our EdTech class, there are definite educational applications that vary across disciplines.
