MINECRAFT ACADEMIC RESEARCH

​"Video games like Minecraft provide vital benefits to youth, helping them to express and control their emotions, build strong social ties, and spark creativity, imagination, peer engagement, and teamwork. These skills are beneficial in the classroom, especially as education moves toward using co-operative and collaborative learning models which focus on knowledge as a social construct" (Pappas, 2014)


"Incorporation of Minecraft into the school curriculum, students were found to be more engaged, motivated and likely to problem solve" (Schifter & Cipollone, 2015)


"There appears to be a disconnect between some teachers & parents understandings about the Minecraft world's mechanisms, uses and benefits" (Ellison, 2016)

​
"Skepticism regarding the efficacy of Minecraft as a valuable tool for learning"
(Kruger, 2016)
