Per a request from friends who are interested in learning more about teaching children with that wonderful but terrible game, Minecraft, I have begun to create the following list of blogs. These are blogs that I have found which are devoted to the teaching of various school subjects and which use Minecraft as a tool for doing so. If you, dear reader, have any blogs that you think should be added to this list, please, feel free to let me know -- I will be more than happy to update this list. It is most definitely a work in progress.

My name is Joel Levin. I am a computer teacher at a private school in New York City. This blog chronicles my foray into usingMinecraft in the classroom. The results were far from expected.
I am also the co-owner of TeacherGaming LLC, creators of MinecraftEdu the official version of Minecraft designed for teachers and students.

This wiki is a storehouse of resources, ideas and fun stuff for a small group of educators using video games with their students.
Currently, our goal is to introduce educators to the video game Minecraft and help them learn how to use the game with their students.
We run two Minecraft servers: a Professional Play server for teachers to learn Minecraft and the Multi-School Server, for teachers to play Minecraft with their students and other schools around the world.
We are actively seeking new members for both servers. Interested? Read on and see how you can join in the fun and learning!
