"Minecraft is a game about breaking and placing blocks. At first, people built structures to protect against nocturnal monsters, but as the game grew players worked together to create wonderful, imaginative things. It can also be about adventuring with friends or watching the sun rise over a blocky ocean. It's pretty. Brave players battle terrible things in The Nether, which is more scary than pretty. You can also visit a land of mushrooms if it sounds more like your cup of tea. "

"Jaw dropping. This sums up what we thought the first time we saw the three-dimensional model Zaki Tahari created of the recently-completed Washington International School library. Using a video game, a set of blueprints and a high level of motivation, Zaki created an absolutely stunning model that we know you will love. In this video podcast, Zaki and Pat Kyle, the school librarian, discuss this awesome project, complete with a walk through of the library. At the conclusion of the podcast, we also hear from Neil MacDonald of the Washington International School as he gives his account of how this project fits into the school's International Baccalaureate program."

I will use this in class. It will be great learning tool.
