Grading
Learners are invited to design and construct their own roller coaster track in Minecraft, applying Redstone engineering concepts learned in the course. They will build the track, incorporate Redstone-powered elements, and ensure functionality and excitement. Once completed, learners may record a video of their roller coaster ride and share it with me for my responsive, inclusive, empowering, and specific positive feedback. Learner's creations are celebrated and appreciated.

Parental Guidance
* This is a self-paced asynchronous course with no live meetings. * Minecraft Bedrock or Education Edition software is required. Water and Redstone mechanics differ in Java. * We are not gaming together. Gamer tags are not shared. * This is a Minecraft Roller Coaster course and is not a formal standards-based physics or engineering course. * Not an official Minecraft course. Not approved by or associated with Mojang or Microsoft. * This course includes commands, which involve typing, shown visually and spelled out with intention. * Minecraft may contain cartoon type violence without blood or gore. I do not model this in this course.
