Are you looking for a unique way to engage your students into learning new skills and content? With technology playing an increasingly important role in every profession, a foundational understanding of computer science is becoming an essential component of student learning. The need for authentic and engaging computer science instruction is more important than ever.  \nMinecraft: Education Edition is pleased to introduce the K-12 Computer Science Progression. Within the progression, you will find a computer science content collection with over 150 hours of high-quality computer science materials intended for all students in their educational journey.  \nThe material has been exclusively designed to afford teachers a consistent and easy-toimplement curriculum resource. Teachers can leverage the novelty and engagement of the Minecraft worlds to help students to acquire content knowledge and develop relevant skills. By using Minecraft as a platform for learning, educators, like you, can motivate and inspire every student to achieve more and ignite a passion for learning.  \nSo how can you get started? You don’t need to be an expert Minecraft player to start teaching with Minecraft: Education Edition! In fact, Minecraft: Education Edition is a great place to start your computer science journey. Make sure you have the necessary hardware and software  \n[education.minecraft.net](education.minecraft.net) 1 v1 06/22  \nMaterials  \n\n| Hardware | 􀁸 The teacher will need a laptop or tablet with a projector for the plugged-in coding lessons.\u003Cbr>􀁸 Internet access will be required for a portion of the lessons and activities.\u003Cbr>􀁸 Each student will need a device to complete the plugged-in coding activities.\u003Cbr>􀁸 OPTIONAL: Some educators prefer students to use headphones during the independent work segment of the lessons, as there is noise within the game. |\n| --- | --- |\n| Software | 􀁸 Minecraft: Education Edition needs to be deployed on the devices utilized within these lessons.

Students should have had some instruction and/or guidance around device usage and navigation (i.e., appropriate use of hardware, device login procedure/information, digital safety, etc. ) . There is a recommended grade level/age range for students as it relates to the developmentally-appropriateness and reading comprehension levels of the computer science units. Please refer to the Computer Science Progression on page 4.  \nTeachers do not need to have any prior computer science experience; however, they should familiarize themselves with a basic understanding of Minecraft:  \nEducation Edition.
