The Sustainability Maze in Minecraft is a fun way to introduce students to game-based learning, thematic room design and sustainability. Each Sustainability Maze generates a unique modular maze that students navigate and can help each other. Thematic rooms and puzzles make this a highly engaging introduction to Infinite Mind Pictures & game-based learning in Minecraft! Our discussions before and after playing the game will reflect student interests in a wide variety of topics.
Learning Goals
In Minecraft, students will learn about sustainability, biomes, Fair Trade and shared experience by helping each other navigate a modular Sustainability Maze.
