Overview

Minecraft is everywhere and students love it. Everyone is talking about it and lots of educators "seem" to be using it in their classrooms. Join Aaron Mauer as he explores how Minecraft can provide a powerful approach to learning in your classroom. He will explore some key ideas about Minecraft, provide sample project ideas, and take time for Q and A so that you can take the next steps towards experimenting with this addictive world of blocks and building. The focus will be on learning and instruction in the classroom with Minecraft and not a how-to-play guide.

This webinar has been brought to you by Microsoft. Learn more about using Minecraft in Education at http://education.minecraft.net/.

Great webinar.
Nice call with introducing the 5th "C" - Common Core.
I am happy that you stressed the importance of student input, or feedback.
