Community reviews for Minecraft

I totally recommend this product to help the students with their liking content to real life.

I think this is a wonderful teaching tool with a seemingly endless number of applications. Students love the open-world concept of "vanilla" Minecraft, but also can have subjects like Reading, science, math, history and more bring about a level of understanding that other methods may not work as well or at all. Basic concepts for Programming can be used to build an interest in that field. As varied as students are, so are the ways to use MEE or "vanilla Minecraft. Students can even reinforce this at home driven by their efforts and motivation.

I think this is an excellent tool for students to use; students can use this tool to improve their creativity skills as well as a means to express their knowledge.

This is not something that I would use often in the classroom, however, it would be a great tool to use on occasion. Students can benefit many problem solving skills from this resource, as well as using their imagination.

I do like this teaching tool because of how it allows students to be creative in their own way and to learn problem solving if they can't figure something out. It can be used in moderation and be a great addition to the classroom.

I personally found the program to be quiet difficult to use and very frustrating. I can see why many students like it because it encourages creativity and there is a lot of freedom to be had when using it, but it took me to long to learn how to use the material. Even though I am not the biggest fan of the app, I would definitely use this with my students as a reward for completing their work or as a creative project.

I think that Minecraft is a fun way for kids to use technology and get used to the technological abilities of computers, tablets etc.

This game seems like a very interactive way of teaching students many different lessons. There are many things that students can create and also many problems that students can learn how to solve. This game seems like it would grab their attention and they would be more interested in learning new things.

I think this product is engaging and exciting for students. I could see myslef using this as a tool for alternate means of expressing knowledge.

It is an excellent tool to add to the digital learning kit. Whilst it is still relatively a new product, Microsoft seem to be updating it regularly and there are numerous resources shared on their website by educators all around the world.
