Do you want to teach coding in a game-based environment but are not a gaming or coding expert? In this session, you will learn how ‘Coding in Minecraft’ creates a student-led, highly engaging learning experience where the educator becomes the facilitator, and the students lead their own learning to learn how to code in Blocks, JavaScript or Python. In addition, they can earn a credential through our Capstone Credential Exam. See how our immersive curriculum and credential pathway has all the resources you need to teach your students how to code.
