A2: I will be with my Minecraft Makershop this summer. We'll learn building/design theory but final design is student #minecrafted

a_minshall Apr 12 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A2 Never thought of using MC for Art but could you recreate a famous painting in MC? #MineCraftEd

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:15 PM EDT

DT in #Minecraft looks like Ss collaborating to understand a problem, creating plan, testing, & going through iterative process #MinecraftED

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:16 PM EDT

@tisinaction That sounds awesome! Can you tell me more? #MinecraftED

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:16 PM EDT

@a_minshall we prefer a spin on things like this creating some new but influenced by the masters #minecraftED

a_minshall Apr 12 @ 8:17 PM EDT

@GrundlerArt How about when studying an artist recreating a famous works? #MineCraftEd

johnmillerEDU Apr 12 @ 8:17 PM EDT

A2. Yes, had Ss write poetry and then visualize it by manipulating the environment in Minecraft. #minecrafted

ReadforCupcakes Apr 12 @ 8:17 PM EDT

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:19 PM EDT

@johnmillerEDU That sounds awesome, do you have any videos or pictures? #MinecraftED

tisinaction Apr 12 @ 8:19 PM EDT

For those asking about my Minecraft Makershop workshop, I am developing a book that I can share on it #minecrafted

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:19 PM EDT

A2: Our Art & Media classes use Minecraft to create innovative modes of transportation #minecraftED

MrHExperience Apr 12 @ 8:19 PM EDT

@a_minshall @GrundlerArt I've done this with my Ss before! Super fun, and very spatially challenging! #minecrafted

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:19 PM EDT

@tisinaction Do you know the criteria for this builds? Are there parameters in terms of resources or solving a social issue? #MinecraftED

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:20 PM EDT

@lynnetelfer Welcome Lynne! Glad to see you in the chat. #MinecraftED

tisinaction Apr 12 @ 8:20 PM EDT

@MGrundel I do. Hard to explain in tweets. Based on designing better looking builds using variety of blocks/textures #minecrafted

itsmeSpiri - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:20 PM EDT

A2) Having Ss visualize part of story they're reading & recreate it, also pixel art #minecrafted

Artguy76 Apr 12 @ 8:21 PM EDT

Q3: 1st stage is Empathy. How does it help you to be more creative? #MinecraftED https://t.co/buhHv4dP7Z

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:21 PM EDT

@MGrundel @tisinaction sounds like #bigideas in #artEd we give Ss broad themes & ask them to translate their ideas artistically #minecraftED

ReadforCupcakes Apr 12 @ 8:21 PM EDT

Newbie Q: What is the best way to get started using Minecraft? Cost? Logistics? #MineCraftEd

HaginPhoto Apr 12 @ 8:21 PM EDT

Hey, #MineCraftEd! Ginny from VA, 2nd grade teacher and elementary/middle #Minecraft club advisor. I love watching what my students do!

ReadforCupcakes Apr 12 @ 8:21 PM EDT

Q3: Empathy thinks about the problem and the people of who will benefit from the solution #MineCraftEd

johnmillerEDU Apr 12 @ 8:21 PM EDT

@ReadforCupcakes Students wrote tanka poetry for medieval Japanese villagers and then created a poetry village. #minecraftEd

a_minshall Apr 12 @ 8:22 PM EDT

@ReadforCupcakes Either wait for the new Microsoft version or have a look at the Vanilla version #MineCraftEd

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:22 PM EDT

A3: Empathy is all about perspective & understanding. When you see something from a different angle we can find new solutions #MinecraftED

Artguy76 Apr 12 @ 8:22 PM EDT

A3: Empathy - helps us to understand more of the why you are creating something! #minecraftED

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:22 PM EDT

ReadforCupcakes Apr 12 @ 8:22 PM EDT

@MGrundel and find the best solution for those involved, not the solution we might want... #MineCraftEd

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:23 PM EDT

A3: Know needs of people & thinking how I would relate to the problem if I was in their shoes always helps identify direction #minecraftED

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:23 PM EDT

MrHExperience Apr 12 @ 8:25 PM EDT

@lynnetelfer This is so easy to forget, but so many of my Ss have genuine feelings toward those creatures! #minecrafted

itsmeSpiri - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:25 PM EDT

A3) To empathize is to understand people, what they need, why they need it, physical emotional needs, it's meaningful to them #minecrafted

johnmillerEDU Apr 12 @ 8:26 PM EDT

A3. Very important for studying history. I want my Ss to experience the lives of others. MC is the creative outlet. #minecraftED

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:26 PM EDT

#Empathize #minecraftED https://t.co/HpuT3TX5rH

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:26 PM EDT

A3 -1 #MinecraftEd Learning to align yourself with needs and feelings of others is key to high quality design! Empathy = KNOW Your Audience

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:26 PM EDT

@mr_isaacs @Artguy76 @creatubbles Yeah, I thought it was pretty funny too, rare I find someone with alsmost the same last name #MinecraftED

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:27 PM EDT

A3 -2 #minecrafted Having to create to meet others emotions means thinking outside the box (cliche) so can create without losing self.

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:27 PM EDT

@MGrundel @mr_isaacs @Artguy76 @creatubbles Lol Ss always call me Ms. Grundel #minecraftEd

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:28 PM EDT

Q4: How do you Define the challenge, when Ss are designing in MineCraft to solve. #minecraftED https://t.co/n6Md3CrGMa

MrHExperience Apr 12 @ 8:28 PM EDT

@PBJellyGames Good opportunity to reinforce some of the digital citizenship values we teach in other contexts. #minecrafted #NoSpamming

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:29 PM EDT

Artguy76 Apr 12 @ 8:29 PM EDT

@HaginPhoto A4: So glad you are here with us tonight! #minecraftED

a_minshall Apr 12 @ 8:29 PM EDT

A4) By planning before they get onto MC the planning is so important #MineCraftEd

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:29 PM EDT

A4: Ss share ideas & listen to each other. Challenge assumptions, test hypotheses, then share w/ peers. #MinecraftED

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:30 PM EDT

Q5: Do you feel parameters in "DT" can help devel. creativity? Why or Why not? #minecraftED https://t.co/kG1oe5EXzJ

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:30 PM EDT

@a_minshall How do you have Ss plan? Do you have a planning worksheet or use any graphic organizers? #MinecraftED

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:30 PM EDT

@GrundlerArt #minecrafted I saw that same yesterday! I think on your twitter! It was brilliant!

a_minshall Apr 12 @ 8:30 PM EDT

@MGrundel I like using good old fashioned square paper, one box is one block #MineCraftEd

MrHExperience Apr 12 @ 8:30 PM EDT

@MGrundel Thanks, @a_minshall ! I was wondering the same thing! #minecrafted

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:31 PM EDT

A4: Give them parameters depending on age they need boundaries #minecraftED

johnmillerEDU Apr 12 @ 8:31 PM EDT

A4. Creating castles now, we determine castle commonalities and research styles together, Ss create a composite #MinecraftED

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:31 PM EDT

@a_minshall Brilliant in its simplicity! #MinecraftED

lynnetelfer Apr 12 @ 8:31 PM EDT

The beautiful moment when ss come up with Their own questions and challenges. They are on fire for problem solving! #minecrafted

pjcerullo Apr 12 @ 8:31 PM EDT

My Ss are constructing zombie-proof bunkers. Need specific criteria, but creativity highly celebrated! #MinecraftEd

itsmeSpiri - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:33 PM EDT

A4) By planning, collaborating and understanding what they have already designed #minecrafted

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:33 PM EDT

@a_minshall lol saw MC and thought MC Esher you could do some cool Minecraft work influenced by him! #minecraftED

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:33 PM EDT

A4 #minecrafted Challenge Definition is important to setting parameters and meetng objtvs. Define clearly + elaborate but keep goal in mind.

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:33 PM EDT

A4: Love the idea of Shadowing a Student, except doing it in spectator mode in #MinecraftED Really see the world through their avatar

pjcerullo Apr 12 @ 8:34 PM EDT

A4: I often present the challenge to the Ss, but they way they solve it is completely up to them. #minecrafted

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:34 PM EDT

@itsmeSpiri- KEY points! Plan and Collaborate- critique throughout the process #minecraftED

Catherine_D2013 Apr 12 @ 8:34 PM EDT

I think maybe parameters are needed if time and accessibility to tech is an issue. Bigger projects I'm more open ended. #MineCraftEd

Artguy76 Apr 12 @ 8:35 PM EDT

@MGrundel Just sitting watching over Owen’s shoulders is pretty amazing, problem solving! #minecraftED

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:35 PM EDT

@GrundlerArt #MinecraftEd Parameters give focus to goal and objective. That's so important! as objectives focus on meeting empathy needs

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:35 PM EDT

A5 - Must have parameters. Look what Elon Musk has done w/ SpaceX & its limited timeline & budget. Parameters boost creativity #MinecraftED

Artguy76 Apr 12 @ 8:35 PM EDT

Owen - does anyone have any good tips for making a circle in MC? #minecraftED

a_minshall Apr 12 @ 8:36 PM EDT

How about for parameters setting a budget for a build and put a price on blocks? #MineCraftEd

MrHExperience Apr 12 @ 8:36 PM EDT

@MGrundel I agree! Some Ss can make it work, but many need a nudge to guide their creativity. #minecrafted

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:36 PM EDT

@a_minshall #MinecraftEd I like when more than one tool is used for design. My early worlds were all graphed and blueprinted.

lynnetelfer Apr 12 @ 8:36 PM EDT

These students have shown amazing self management & design on minecraft #MinecraftEd top results in problem solving! https://t.co/WciobJtlx7

Catherine_D2013 Apr 12 @ 8:36 PM EDT

Just finished putting together big project for gr 4 classes in my school.Will be designing new downtown #MineCraftEd https://t.co/1HOUDxbqa0

pjcerullo Apr 12 @ 8:37 PM EDT

@a_minshall That is a neat idea. I never thought of that. Could really up the challenge. #minecrafted

HaginPhoto Apr 12 @ 8:37 PM EDT

Elementary Ss are setting up their own economy and middle Ss are doing 1:1 build of local museum using real blueprints. #MinecraftEd

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:37 PM EDT

Don't think I'll get this sketch of #minecraft #designthinking done before the end of #minecraftED here's half https://t.co/re80OC4vaC

MrHExperience Apr 12 @ 8:37 PM EDT

Gotta duck out, but I will look back on this chat later! Follow and I will return the favour! Good chat! #minecrafted

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:37 PM EDT

@Catherine_D2013 Even bigger projects need parameters or they will go on for ever. Are we ever truly done creating? #MinecraftED

a_minshall Apr 12 @ 8:38 PM EDT

@pjcerullo Automaically sets parameters and brings in financial skills #MineCraftEd

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:38 PM EDT

@MrHExperience Thanks for Joining us this Week! #MinecraftED

Catherine_D2013 Apr 12 @ 8:38 PM EDT

@MGrundel exactly the challenge with kids, will continue to build and design if we don't put a parameter of some sort on it. #minecrafted

Artguy76 Apr 12 @ 8:39 PM EDT

If you like what people are saying Follow each other! Help Grow that #PLN #minecraftED https://t.co/4p4k0zL8sO

Hey @PBJellyGames you'd be proud @irvspanish taught me how to mod and use NPCs (big step for me) lol #MineCraftEd

pjcerullo Apr 12 @ 8:41 PM EDT

@GrundlerArt I definitely agree. I just put a time limit on my Ss; they are working harder than ever; thinking outside the box. #minecrafted

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:42 PM EDT

Q6: The last stage is prototype.What kind of info can be gathered by redesigning ideas? #minecraftED https://t.co/n8KXPeoEaR

lynnetelfer Apr 12 @ 8:42 PM EDT

Class is about to finish. Thanks for letting my ss and I be part of a great topic! #MinecraftEd

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:43 PM EDT

A6 #minecrafted Again going back to know audience - Prototype is as much about feedback as anything else. Allows iteration to meet needs.

tisinaction Apr 12 @ 8:43 PM EDT

A6: You learn where weaknesses were and how something can be made better #minecrafted

Artguy76 Apr 12 @ 8:43 PM EDT

@lynnetelfer thanks for joining us! #minecraftED

Artguy76 Apr 12 @ 8:44 PM EDT

A6: Just like creating Art, Criticism it a huge part of improvement! Self or others. #minecraftED

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:44 PM EDT

In writing we call prototyping “drafting” The iterative process is so powerful to develop all learning #MinecraftED

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:45 PM EDT

@tisinaction #minecrafted Not just weaknesses, strengths too. Can build on the good and iterate the bad. Builds relelvant self knowledge.

a_minshall Apr 12 @ 8:45 PM EDT

A6 Feedback from the audience is paramount, planning helps at the initial stages #MineCraftEd

Catherine_D2013 Apr 12 @ 8:45 PM EDT

A6 the reflection piece is a great learning piece - what went well, where are changes needed. #MineCraftEd

a_minshall Apr 12 @ 8:45 PM EDT

Feedback on signs from other Ss, 2 stars and wish in a garden outside a house is always great #MineCraftEd

tisinaction Apr 12 @ 8:46 PM EDT

@PBJellyGames Haha very true. Peer critiquing can help with this #minecrafted

If we do not challenge assumptions and constructively criticize then we build Ss w/ High Self Esteem, but low Self Worth #MinecraftED

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:46 PM EDT

@tisinaction #minecrafted Yes! and if we create comfortable environment where feedback is safe, then we get better feedback in longrun.

HaginPhoto Apr 12 @ 8:47 PM EDT

Ss need to have an authentic audience to make the project more meaningful. Purpose-driven is great. #MinecraftEd

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:47 PM EDT

@tisinaction #minecrafted I use the safe feedback apprch with Employees all the time. I will never get mad at feedback, I encourage it.

@PBJellyGames @tisinaction Excellent point, love use of the word “safe” We must first build trust, which is layered in Empathy #MinecraftED

pjcerullo Apr 12 @ 8:47 PM EDT

A6: Reflection is key and like many said "What if." My Ss have come up with crazy ideas when that question is asked. #minecrafted

AnIowaTeacher Apr 12 @ 8:48 PM EDT

A6: We talk reflection all the time. Look at all our information, seeking out new information, and tweeking designs, all good! #minecrafted

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:48 PM EDT

#minecrafted I'm very feedback oriented! I don't pull punches but alway approach with tact! It helps every team grow!

itsmeSpiri - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:48 PM EDT

A6) Reflection is always important, answer Qs that may arise, & get you closer to your finished product #minecraftED

Catherine_D2013 Apr 12 @ 8:48 PM EDT

Love this idea!! #minecrafted https://t.co/BidIaMbGvX

a_minshall Apr 12 @ 8:45 PM EDT

Feedback on signs from other Ss, 2 stars and wish in a garden outside a house is always great #MineCraftEd

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:49 PM EDT

Q7: Testing is the last step. How do you + use feedback to improve design? #MinecraftED https://t.co/wKgO9zIVZZ

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:49 PM EDT

@itsmeSpiri absolutely! Reflection is a essential - we always ask the S if it's finished, step back and think about it first #minecraftEd

Catherine_D2013 Apr 12 @ 8:49 PM EDT

Sometimes having someone's else's feedback from a different perspective can be very helpful #minecrafted

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:50 PM EDT

@Catherine_D2013 It’s like a circle. Now we are back to empathy! #DesignThinking #MinecraftED

a_minshall Apr 12 @ 8:50 PM EDT

Stepping back from MC and thinking from a different angle always helps with feedback #MineCraftEd

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:50 PM EDT

@jedikermit this is your kind of chat - gaming as ed - we use #minecraft to create! #minecraftEd

tisinaction Apr 12 @ 8:51 PM EDT

A7: You get someone else's viewpoint on what you've done #minecrafted

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:51 PM EDT

A7 #minecrafted Again back to empathy devlpmnt. Empathy lets you apply feedback without taking it personally. = SELF Growth! Better work.

Catherine_D2013 Apr 12 @ 8:51 PM EDT

It's important to look at what others have shared, the feedback that's been given and now look to how could incorporate #minecrafted

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:51 PM EDT

@MGrundel @Catherine_D2013 Up that's exactly how it works!!! #minecraftED

Mrs_Rolf Apr 12 @ 8:51 PM EDT

A4: I pre teach a variety of uses for MC and they can work together or alone to create their response to the prompt #minecrafted

a_minshall Apr 12 @ 8:51 PM EDT

Instead of QuadBlogging could we MC Blog? Four schools team up, each wk one school is focus school others feedback & rotate #MineCraftEd

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:51 PM EDT

@a_minshall Love this. Or, we’ve done this in MC, now how do we do this in another platform? #MinecraftED

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:52 PM EDT

@jedikermit lol - so does our Owen! #minecraftED

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:52 PM EDT

#minecrafted Amazing point @Catherine_D2013 . Looking at feedback given to others helps shape our own work too :D https://t.co/iHF7z48aSN

Catherine_D2013 Apr 12 @ 8:51 PM EDT

a_minshall Apr 12 @ 8:52 PM EDT

@MGrundel Yes! One week one school each shares a map and the other schools leave signs for them with feedback #MineCraftEd

tisinaction Apr 12 @ 8:52 PM EDT

@MGrundel @a_minshall Or how is this applicable to real world? #minecrafted

Catherine_D2013 Apr 12 @ 8:52 PM EDT

always talk to my littles that people are sharing thoughts about your design,not you so it's not personal, but hard at that age #minecrafted

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:52 PM EDT

@jedikermit see! He's even wearing the shirt! #minecraftEd https://t.co/auZ1CCNteS

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:53 PM EDT

@a_minshall That’s awesome! Great Idea. I am going to use this. Explore other maps and leave feedback through signs! #MinecraftED

a_minshall Apr 12 @ 8:53 PM EDT

@tisinaction @MGrundel Feedback in the real world is always important! #MineCraftEd

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:53 PM EDT

#minecrafted What a brilliant IDEA! https://t.co/to8vQfsl9P

A7) Continue to ask Qs, did you do what you set out to do, think about empathy piece again, make it come full circle #minecraftEd

a_minshall Apr 12 @ 8:53 PM EDT

@MGrundel Would love to share maps and leave a sign showing problem for feedback #MineCraftEd

GrundlerArt Apr 12 @ 8:54 PM EDT

LIVE on #Periscope: Owen's guest appearance in #minecraftEd https://t.co/Mm5mbrsqED

johnmillerEDU Apr 12 @ 8:54 PM EDT

A7. After Ss exp unit and give feedback, I modify every lesson. I’ve never done it the same way twice. It can always be better. #MinecraftEd

Mrs_Rolf Apr 12 @ 8:54 PM EDT

A6: ties in with #growthmindset and reflecting on their products and learning through the process #minecrafted

Catherine_D2013 Apr 12 @ 8:54 PM EDT

As my peanut would say, he looks very stylish and fashionable lol @GrundlerArt @jedikermit #minecrafted

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:54 PM EDT

PBJellyGames - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:55 PM EDT

@GrundlerArt #MinecraftEd Thanks Owen :D I cannot access periscope (No Flash atm) but i'll look later :D

a_minshall Apr 12 @ 8:55 PM EDT

@PBJellyGames One week could it be done earlier in the day EST so people from Europe could be more active in chat? #MineCraftEd

seanrussell311 Apr 12 @ 8:56 PM EDT

I've totally got to learn how to infuse my classes with Minecraft. #minecraftED

MGrundel - Moderator Apr 12 @ 8:56 PM EDT
