    Teachers should be spending their precious lesson planning time designing lessons to engage kids mentally and push them to higher levels, not creating flashy Powerpoints .. Instead of thinking about how to get your students to interact with a $2,000 electronic whiteboard, think about how you can get your students to interact with each other using a $2 whiteboard.

Educational building blocks: how Minecraft is used in classrooms - 9 views

arstechnica.com/...eing-used-in-the-classroom.ars building educational computer game Minecraft
shared by Roland Gesthuizen on 09 Apr 11 - No Cached
  • Class begins with the students away from the game, as Levin explains the goals for the day. Then they go to work, often in pre-built worlds created by Levin which feature specific tasks to accomplish or puzzles to solve. But they always need to work together.
  • Levin actually views these negative behaviors as a positive aspect of the lesson, and will often stop the game to address these concerns. He sees it as a way to help shape the way his students behave in an online environment, showing them the importance of acting in a responsible and considerate manner.
  • Roland Gesthuizen on 09 Apr 11
     
    "With its open-ended nature and robust creation tools, Minecraft has been used to create some amazing things. And as one teacher learned, those very same elements that make the game so compelling also make it a great educational tool.
  • Roland Gesthuizen on 09 Apr 11
     
    A fun game to try out, don't let the graphics distract or confuse you. This is easy to use, bigger and much more complicated than it first looks. Good learning potential.

  • Ian Guest on 15 Apr 11
     
    How about perhaps getting students to adapt another play in this way? A whole year group maybe could make some inroads? Re-organising and rethinking content in this way would surely help with understanding and might entice in some of those reluctant Shakespeare-ophobes.

    "As web companies strive to tailor their services (including news and search results) to our personal tastes, there's a dangerous unintended consequence: We get trapped in a "filter bubble" and don't get exposed to information that could challenge or broaden our worldview. Eli Pariser argues powerfully that this will ultimately prove to be bad for us and bad for democracy."

    How about having students generate the list i.e. find a bunch of resources on a particular topic (Although sign-on via FBook/Twitter might be a problem). They can then vote for the resources they find most helpful, thereby helping the next bunch of students that come along to that topic
