Minecraft Education is a game that has become very popular among students and has been increasingly used in education as a tool to promote creativity, collaboration, and problem-solving. In April 2023, De Pedagogics, an edtech company in India, organized an Earth Build Challenge in Minecraft for students from schools across India.
The challenge required students to work in teams and build something that expressed how they were feeling on that day. The challenge aimed to provide a game-based learning environment that students love and encourage them to think creatively, collaborate with their team members, and solve problems.
The response to the challenge was overwhelming, and De Pedagogics received over 160 innovative projects from schools across India. The projects were judged based on creativity, innovation, and relevance to the theme. The top 8 projects were announced as winners, including one Grand Prize winner, five National level winners, one North East region winning team, and one South West Central team. The winning teams will receive specially designed Minecraft badges, and certificates of achievement.
The challenge was not just about winning, but also about participating and learning. All participating teams received a special challenge participation E-badge and email signature badge. This recognition provided them with a sense of accomplishment and pride in their work.
