@SueStyren Schools can no longer purchase the Teacher Gaming Version but Education Edition via @PlayCraftLearn is out Nov 1st. #Minecraftedu

AnIowaTeacher Oct 11 @ 8:12 PM EDT

@MaureenDano Awesome! Welcome to the #Minecraftedu Chats. Some of my favorite educators are from NJ. :D

irvspanish Oct 11 @ 8:13 PM EDT

A1: Creativity levels are off the charts because of #MinecraftEdu There is no "that's impossible" because it is possible in #Minecraft

LindseyCato1 Oct 11 @ 8:13 PM EDT

A1: kids tell me that certain things in mine craft are similar, in theory, to some things we learn #Minecraftedu

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:14 PM EDT

A1: Coming up w/ Creative and out-of-the-box (and sometimes inside the) solutions, problem-solving and decision making. #MinecraftEDU

AnIowaTeacher Oct 11 @ 8:14 PM EDT

PBJellyGames - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A1 ctd - #Minecraftedu Children Seek out and develop new skills daily with Minecraft! They know that where there's a will there's 5 ways

pfm2001_ Oct 11 @ 8:16 PM EDT

@MGrundel @AnIowaTeacher emerald blocks are better #MinecraftEDU

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:16 PM EDT

@robinkuhn Sounds awesome! What subjects/ages do you teach? Would love to hear how you got started. #MinecraftEDU

pfm2001_ Oct 11 @ 8:16 PM EDT

@MGrundel @AnIowaTeacher i think #MinecraftEDU

AnIowaTeacher Oct 11 @ 8:16 PM EDT

@robinkuhn So I'll ask, what version are you using? I teach over at NFV, so I'd love to learn how you are doing this! :) #minecraftedu

irvspanish Oct 11 @ 8:20 PM EDT

A1: My son is the perfect example of how #MinecraftEdu inspires Ss. Wants to learn/teach/entertain constantly https://t.co/elbUGv6ijQ

lynnetelfer Oct 11 @ 8:20 PM EDT

I love the fact the kids already can see the links from Minecraft to their learning! #minecraftedu

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:20 PM EDT

Remember, if you’re a S, please answer these Qs from your perspective. If you’re a T Lurker, we also want 2 hear your thoughts #MinecraftEDU

irvspanish Oct 11 @ 8:21 PM EDT

A2: The classroom unfortunately does NOT resemble the world of #gbl The "school" game is often boring and not inspirational #MinecraftEdu

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:21 PM EDT

@irvspanish Nice, your son has his own channel! Thats great, how old is he? Such a great way to teach #digcit #MinecraftEDU

lynnetelfer Oct 11 @ 8:22 PM EDT

A2: Give Ss the power! Let them know they are ALLOWED to be amazing! #Minecraftedu

pfm2001_ Oct 11 @ 8:22 PM EDT

@MGrundel I've also noted that switching the game to a language of your choice tells you what the objects are. #MinecraftEDU

PBJellyGames - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:22 PM EDT

A2 - Gameful Learning often requires a shift in the power balance of a classroom. Shift from T driven to Ss driven. #Minecraftedu

pfm2001_ Oct 11 @ 8:22 PM EDT

@MGrundel e.g changing the language to Swedish makes an emerald Smaragd #MinecraftEDU

irvspanish Oct 11 @ 8:23 PM EDT

@MGrundel He's 9. He plays #MinecraftEdu every weekend with his grandfather (who is 67) Amazing #crossgenerational connection!

lynnetelfer Oct 11 @ 8:23 PM EDT

Q2: It is heartbreaking to think the Ss do not feel encouraged to bring their skills in and be a powerful motivator #minecraftedu

PBJellyGames - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:23 PM EDT

A2 CTD #Minecraftedu In the game itself, part of the wonder is Freedom. This freedom leads to motivation. In class, pure freedom is tough.

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:24 PM EDT

@PBJellyGames Yes! Part of the power of games is in the gaining of control. You may not be all powerful, but your Avatar is #Minecraftedu

pfm2001_ Oct 11 @ 8:24 PM EDT

@lynnetelfer what is the question? #MinecraftEDU

  Q2: Why do students have difficulty transferring these skills into the classroom? What needs to change?… https://t.co/vTjhoNKJQO

pickleberry1234 Oct 11 @ 8:25 PM EDT

A2 2/2 #minecraftedu and when mc is used the kids just want to have fun and may be distracted by the amount of freedom they have in the game

pickleberry1234 Oct 11 @ 8:25 PM EDT

A2 #minecraftedu from a students pov I can see that it may be hard to transfer into mc from fun to serious because kids want to have fun 1/2

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:25 PM EDT

@irvspanish That is incredible. I hope I am playing Minecraft or other creative Video Games w/ my kids/grandkids in 30 years! #MinecraftEDU

irvspanish Oct 11 @ 8:25 PM EDT

@pickleberry1234 My goal is to design lessons in #MinecraftEdu that are educational but do NOT lose the #fun part of #games

AnIowaTeacher Oct 11 @ 8:25 PM EDT

A2: Gotta give up control, allow the student to become the teacher. #minecraftedu

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:26 PM EDT

@pfm2001_ Ive never changed the language settings in #Minecraftedu Funny how hearing this is such a simple but brilliant idea in perspective

PBJellyGames - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:27 PM EDT

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:28 PM EDT

@pfm2001_ That I did try, def some challenges, #MinecraftEDU

LindseyCato1 Oct 11 @ 8:28 PM EDT

A2: the kids can't assert themselves confidently when it's not virtual. The confidence doesn't transfer. Does that make sense? #Minecraftedu

lynnetelfer Oct 11 @ 8:28 PM EDT

a2:Time to move to 21st C thinking to catch up with the Ss #Minecraftedu

AnIowaTeacher Oct 11 @ 8:28 PM EDT

A2: I can see how the "fun" may be distracting. However, that "fun" can have great learning potential. #minecraftedu

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:28 PM EDT

@irvspanish @ConnorKropp Have you ever played on a server based out of spain or latin america? #MinecraftEDU

PBJellyGames - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:28 PM EDT

1/2 #Minecraftedu I truly believe that there's a way to balance the need for control with the fun, by true GameBased Learning. TBCtd

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:29 PM EDT

@LindseyCato1 Yes, many Ss (and Ts) feel more comfortable in a virtual environment. #MinecraftEDU

irvspanish Oct 11 @ 8:29 PM EDT

@MGrundel @ConnorKropp I actually haven't....that's an awesome idea! I can even have that as a #quest in my classes!! #MinecraftEdu

PBJellyGames - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:29 PM EDT

ctd 2/1 - Games, beneath the surface (mechanics) are all about control! Yet kids play them endlessly. Edu can do the same #Minecraftedu

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:30 PM EDT

@irvspanish @ConnorKropp That’s a brilliant quest. Put it to the Ss to find the best servers to play in, maybe even find #MinecraftEDU (1/2)

LindseyCato1 Oct 11 @ 8:30 PM EDT

A3: easy enough for me. They have to teach me everything! #Minecraftedu

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:31 PM EDT

pfm2001_ Oct 11 @ 8:31 PM EDT

@MGrundel @irvspanish @ConnorKropp Bonus Points: Tech students have to make a server. #MinecraftEDU

AnIowaTeacher Oct 11 @ 8:31 PM EDT

@pfm2001_ Nope, but if I'm not sure how to do something, I'm asking my Ss. They've shown great pose in the spotlight! :) #Minecraftedu

PBJellyGames - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:32 PM EDT

@LindseyCato1 Yes, it makes sense, virtual offers a buffer of protection from typical social issues. BUT #Minecraftedu has helped many grow

pfm2001_ Oct 11 @ 8:32 PM EDT

@MGrundel @irvspanish @ConnorKropp It's really not difficult, especially hamachi servers. Even I could make one. #MinecraftEDU

PBJellyGames - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:32 PM EDT

@LindseyCato1 #Minecraftedu My fave examples are where quiet Ss start to develop relationships with classmates starting with the game.

AnIowaTeacher Oct 11 @ 8:33 PM EDT

@MGrundel @irvspanish @ConnorKropp @SkypeClassroom What?? A #mysteryminecraft?? What a great idea! #minecraftedu

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:33 PM EDT

A3: Ive said many time, “I don’t know what this will look like, but…” Ss return w/ (1/2) #MinecraftEDU

lynnetelfer Oct 11 @ 8:34 PM EDT

A3: How can we enlist their help developing class lessons? MC Clubs are a great resource for S voice! #MinecraftEdu

PBJellyGames - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:34 PM EDT

A3 #Minecraftedu Seen many examples of Ss pitching lesson or assement options. Ss can also be incl in lesson planning imo.

lynnetelfer Oct 11 @ 8:34 PM EDT

a3: Allow the concepts to break though all learning areas! Having uthors like @MarkC_Author and @sfaywolfe talk to the class! #Minecraftedu

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:34 PM EDT

A3 (cont) “Can you look at this I spent X hrs on it last night” Ss are proud of work/research and ownership. #Minecraftedu

pickleberry1234 Oct 11 @ 8:35 PM EDT

A3 #minecraftedu you can make an afterschool day, or even a whole day in class for the children to give ideas and feedback on lesson plans

irvspanish Oct 11 @ 8:35 PM EDT

A3: Empower Ss by letting them create their own #quests (activities) that fulfill the #outcomes of your lesson! #MinecraftEdu

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:36 PM EDT

@pickleberry1234 Such imporant skills that need practice. Feedback is the single most important thing a T can provide to Ss, #Minecraftedu

PBJellyGames - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:36 PM EDT

@LindseyCato1 Its amazing when they tell you HOW they love to learn right? #Minecraftedu :D

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 11 @ 8:37 PM EDT

@pickleberry1234 So why not have Ss provide feedback to Ts, it would enhance the Ts practice and the Ss learning #Minecraftedu

pfm2001_ Oct 11 @ 8:37 PM EDT

@MGrundel @pickleberry1234 there could be a worksheet after each session like "hey how do i improve" a survey #MinecraftEDU
