MarkC_Author Jun 14 @ 8:21 PM EDT

A2 #Minecrafted language is a barrier, I try to get kids frm Spain/France/Brazil who read by book on my server, language drives them away

mr_isaacs Jun 14 @ 8:21 PM EDT

A2: Advantages are definitely #global collaboration, Learning about different cultures, making world smaller, etc. #MineCraftEd

mr_isaacs Jun 14 @ 8:22 PM EDT

A2: disadvantage is that playing real time together may be a challenge due to time zone differences, but asynchronous works #MineCraftEd

BBTNB Jun 14 @ 8:22 PM EDT

A2 - Advantage is the reach the game has. In schools it grows daily. Disadvantage = the reliance on typing for communication. #MinecraftED

MGrundel - Moderator Jun 14 @ 8:22 PM EDT

As A Minecraft Expert and Mentor, what advantages does #MinecraftED have over other Global Collaborative tools? https://t.co/I35BhydWLB

mr_isaacs Jun 14 @ 8:21 PM EDT

A2: Advantages are definitely #global collaboration, Learning about different cultures, making world smaller, etc. #MineCraftEd

mr_isaacs Jun 14 @ 8:23 PM EDT

@MGrundel Well, relevance for one! I used to think love was the common language, now I realize it's #minecraft! #MineCraftEd

Dowbiggin Jun 14 @ 8:23 PM EDT

@BBTNB one of my students taught this to the rest of us this past semester; very cool! #MinecraftED

PBJellyGames - Moderator Jun 14 @ 8:24 PM EDT

#MinecraftED A2 - Advantages are clearly the ease of global connectivity and play. I've made so many friends globally via Minecraft.

MGrundel - Moderator Jun 14 @ 8:24 PM EDT

@MarkC_Author Thats interesting, so children def come to your server for purpose of collaboration and communication #MinecraftED

creatubbles Jun 14 @ 8:24 PM EDT

@MarkC_Author Do you think that visual communication (i.e. art) can help break down the language barrier? Other ways? #MinecraftED

aggieband89 Jun 14 @ 8:24 PM EDT

A2: 👍diversification of ideas and experiences, 👎 language and time zone challenges 🙈 #MinecraftED

Mr_Ullman Jun 14 @ 8:25 PM EDT

A2 Disadvantages primarily tech-related. The global art museum was very laggy due to server load. #MinecraftED

MarkC_Author Jun 14 @ 8:25 PM EDT

@MGrundel #Minecrafted They've read my books, want to play MC with me and my son, but others get mad if they don't use english.

MGrundel - Moderator Jun 14 @ 8:25 PM EDT

@BBTNB Are you thinking Speech-to-Text mod??? #MinecraftED How about a microphone made from Iron and redstone dust,

creatubbles Jun 14 @ 8:25 PM EDT

@BBTNB Similar to my question to @MarkC_Author is text-based the only way? #MinecraftED

Artguy76 Jun 14 @ 8:25 PM EDT

A2: dis: not every school allows for MC. Adv: allows Ss to work w/ other cultures. #MinecraftED

tterrag1098 Jun 14 @ 8:25 PM EDT

@Mr_Ullman We are working consistently on improving the mod performance. The version used in the event was an early version. #MineCraftEd

MarkC_Author Jun 14 @ 8:26 PM EDT

@MGrundel #Minecrafted Use google translate to keep them engaged, but they always end up leaving, too bad, kids could have learned a lot

PBJellyGames - Moderator Jun 14 @ 8:26 PM EDT

@mr_isaacs @MGrundel #MinecraftED Absoultely. It's the norm 4kids, makes it intrinsically appealing, especially when Ts learn that language.

BBTNB Jun 14 @ 8:27 PM EDT

@MGrundel Maybe mics for XBOX. I don't think I have solution for PC/Mac. It would be cool to have a translating chalkboard in #MinecraftED

mr_isaacs Jun 14 @ 8:27 PM EDT

Yes! and they are happy to teach us the language! #MineCraftEd https://t.co/Y5QHPopb7Y

PBJellyGames - Moderator Jun 14 @ 8:26 PM EDT

Dowbiggin Jun 14 @ 8:27 PM EDT

A1: doesn't have to be in real time; doesn't have to be in same language; use Ss common interest to help u find ideas 4 collab #MinecraftED

MGrundel - Moderator Jun 14 @ 8:28 PM EDT

@MarkC_Author This says something about the nature of the game, & back to gamer psychology, its not only about PvP or Creation, #MinecraftED

PBJellyGames - Moderator Jun 14 @ 8:28 PM EDT

@mr_isaacs #MinecraftED I've seen kids just go BRIGHT when I've spoken about Minecraft in public location or worn a shirt. Their heads whip

MGrundel - Moderator Jun 14 @ 8:28 PM EDT

@Artguy76 And back to the timezone issue, how could we make our Global Collaboration Asynchronous w/in #MinecraftED

mr_isaacs Jun 14 @ 8:28 PM EDT

Interested in sharing passion for #minecraft, we are taking proposals for presentations @minefaire https://t.co/OK9fUxxgYt … #MineCraftEd

mkurashige Jun 14 @ 8:29 PM EDT

#MinecraftED I'm hoping we hear from @johnmillerEDU and @mkurashige for tonights Chat! Their Global Collab Lesson was Amazing!

Dowbiggin Jun 14 @ 8:30 PM EDT

A2: adv: common interests knock down most barriers; disadv: some schools aren't set up to allow MC to work there #MinecraftED

MGrundel - Moderator Jun 14 @ 8:30 PM EDT

@Dowbiggin Love this idea, do you have specifics? This is what I love about you, you truly know and understand your Ss. #MinecraftED

Mr_Ullman Jun 14 @ 8:30 PM EDT

dandanscience Jun 14 @ 8:30 PM EDT

I learned all my #MinecraftED language from my Ss! #minecraft has allowed #stuvoice for so many

tterrag1098 Jun 14 @ 8:31 PM EDT

Q3 S Have you used Minecraft in the real world? Art, 3D Printing, Creatubbles Mod and Other Mods? #MinecraftED https://t.co/lbyqcPhHzw

tterrag1098 Jun 14 @ 8:31 PM EDT

@Mr_Ullman @MGrundel @Artguy76 Or a dedicated server, but that would come with maintenance needs. #MineCraftEd

Dowbiggin Jun 14 @ 8:31 PM EDT

@MGrundel @mr_isaacs I think the immersive experience is completely transformational #MinecraftED

mr_isaacs Jun 14 @ 8:31 PM EDT

A3: It was great to get student artwork into #minecraft with the @creatubbles mod - very cool for students to see connection #MineCraftEd

MGrundel - Moderator Jun 14 @ 8:31 PM EDT

@Mr_Ullman Could have a “saves” folder on drive, that's one solution. I was thinking more w/in the game, say hosted on a server #MinecraftED

PBJellyGames - Moderator Jun 14 @ 8:32 PM EDT

Has anyone used the Makey-Makey to make something like a piano out of Noteblocks in #MinecraftED? That would be pretty cool.

#MinecraftED A4 Hololens is a good one, but I love the use of TinkerCad, Shapeways and 3D Printing ect to take MC Creation out.
