Lovely Minecraft resources

Hi all,


I have collated a range of lovely Minecraft resources for you to look at. Make sure you make notes especially on the facts and figures that will help you with your case studies for the exam. Also remember to look at the dates of the articles as some of them are older than others and so you need to be aware of that when you quote the figures.


There are articles on:
  • How successful Minecraft is
  • How it is attracting audiences (children AND parents)
  • How it is being used in schools
  • Examples of Minecraft synergy


Enjoy reading!
