Microsoft plans to be busy this summer working with educators to use their feedback as it continues e to develop the game. Microsoft bought MinecraftEdu earlier this year to supplement the upcoming launch of its own education version. Not long after, the potential for Minecraft in the classroom was realized when the program expanded to over 5,500 educators and received support from Minecraft’s former owner, Mojang. In 2011, educator Joel Levin developed MinecraftEdu. In 2011, an educator created an educational version of the game and it took off in schools almost immediately. Microsoft has been looking to expand Minecraft’s influence in education since it purchased the game several years ago. For educators looking to keep busy this summer, the partnership could be ideal. Teachers and administrators will be able to test out the beta version for the rest of the summer to provide Microsoft with feedback on how the game would work in classrooms.Īs Education World reported last month, Minecraft is available in over 11 languages and its owner Microsoft is hoping to work with educators around the world this summer to perfect the game’s classroom value.
The beta version of Minecraft’s highly anticipated education edition is available for testing for schools and educators starting today.
