GAME ON! 

Tell a story by creating your own unique arcade style video game.  Incorporate design, engineering, quality assurance and game testing elements in just a few easy steps. Here's a quick overview of how to create your own game using Be the Video Game Developer (Click Here).  

 

As a designer, you can build your own "collection and avoidance" style game.  Get started by choosing the character of your choice and the environment for the game you want to develop.  Choose the terrain, the items that will be collected and the obstacles to avoid.  Select the sound design to set the tone of your game.  Add speed, time limits and point values in just a few clicks.  Write the code and make your game challenging enough for others to play without having them get too discouraged.

 

Once you build your game, share the link with your friends.  Let's get started!

 

 

Through the use of MinecraftEDU educators can create content-based age appropriate games that tap into the various learning styles of their students.    
 
MinecraftEDU lends itself to support an interactive classroom in which the teacher is the facilitator of knowledge and the students are the participants.  This model is conducive to learning since information flows in both directions (Dirksen, 2012).
