New Kickstarter 'World of Classcraft' Lets Students Unlock Real-World Powers Video games in the classroom are becoming a popular way to integrate game-based learning into curricula. But Shawn Young of Sherbrooke, Canada has taken it one step further and actually built his own education version of World of Warcraft. He put his own spin on the extremely popular Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG) and dubbed it ‘ World of Classcraft .’ Shawn emailed Edudemic to alert us to this idea and we’re glad he did. It’s a fantastic idea and lets students benefit from the lessons of World of Warcraft but in a safer, education-friendly environment. The World of Classcraft has gotten quite a bit of buzz over the past few months (mentioned by the BBC!) If You’ve Never Heard of World of Warcraft So what is World of Warcraft?

first lesson | ESLGamesBox This getting to know each other activity is simple to set up and works well for most levels above Beginner. Sketch or print out this template, I usually use two sides (10 topics). At the top of each row is a space for a topic title. Topics I use include: work, movies and TV, music, free time activities, whatever town you’re teaching in, sport, food, English, holidays, politics, technology, the environment, etc. Give a sheet to each student and go round the class brainstorming questions for each topic, invite students to write interesting questions on the sheet. When you have questions for each topic, put students in pairs and get them to interview each other using the question sheet. When the interviews have finished (for ten questions this might take around 30 minutes) get the students to report back to the class what they have found out about their partner and encourage further questions to be asked from the class when interesting nuggets of information emerge.
