This session will showcase how the presenter is using the game Minecraft to create a constructivist style classroom where the schema is derived from student journaling on their adventures in Minecraft. This approach allows for a significant reduction in time spent preparing students for an activity and allows for more time on task. This session will also demonstrate how teachers can begin using Minecraft in their classrooms via the MinecraftEdu set of server tools.
