Minecraft Article

1. Because of how simplistic and open-ended the game is. In order to play Minecraft you need collect certain resources. A bed, for example, requires you to combine wood and wool, while a longbol is made from a stick and some string. There's no story, no mission, just you and a world of possibilities. In a nutshell it teaches you basic skills and it's easy to understand. 2. Some features to the  educational version of minecraft are the things you learn through playing it such as geography, architecture, agriculture and physics. I would say it is a good idea since it is an interactive way of teaching students. 3.
