PBL Specifications for Minecraft Environments

View all news

The specifications provide a tool for delivering remote PBL experiences through Minecraft. The methods  of A1/O1 provided the requirements which are now transcribed to specifications for a Minecraft world.  The PBL experiences materialised through the methods of O1/A1 are based on these specifications for a Minecraft world so that it is immediately apparent how the environment can be used to deliver each experience. The value is evident and very significant as the specifications allow for the manifestation of remote learning experiences to concrete Minecraft implementations.
