NOT a Minecraft Java Edition class, this is for bedrock edition ONLY (PlayStation, Switch, iPad/tablet, PC Windows, Xbox).

In this class we will learn the basics of Minecraft's most engineered feature: REDSTONE! We'll learn the vocabulary of it's different components (redstone dust, torches, repeaters, comparators, observers, etc.) and each of their functions. By the end of the class, we will have used every item in the redstone directory in Minecraft and combine them together to make things that are automatized, useful, and FUN in gameplay. 

Each class I will show a common example of how a redstone contraption works, focusing on the new component of redstone that it relies on. After I show how it's built, students will make their own version. Then, I challenge them to make adjustments or decorate it so it fits nicely in their growing base full of neat redstone designs.

Each day I will post the picture of what we built with instructions on how we did it so students can make their own version in their minecraft worlds.

Class 1: Redstone dust, triggers, & pistons: understanding how they're placed. We'll build some important traps every player needs to know! 
Class 2: Dispensers & droppers! What's the difference? Automatic armor stands, netherportals that open and close, and more!
Class 3: Observers & hoppers: how to build automatic systems that are very useful in farms. Intricate storage systems and automatic furnaces.
Class 4: Clocks, but not the ones that tell the time. Here we will automate canons or trashcans, and make a complicated parkour map with moving parts.
Class 5: Rails: how to make a train station and minecart delivery system. We'll end with some fun games that build on our knowledge of what we learned.
