The Minecraft Teacher Back to school. Long time no post. So one day I had this idea to use Minecraft in my class. It worked really, really well. It was transformative for both my students and myself. Minecraft Lesson Plan « Shaping the World Lately, I have been researching ways to use Minecraft in the classroom for game based learning. Here is a rough outline of how I would introduce students to this amazing, educational game. Prior to this lesson students will have learned basic design and sketching skills. This lesson would be the first within a unit designed to teach students how to plan a community. Minecraft is a computer game that combines mechanics, design and creativity within an RPG.

Need some help wiring an Iron Door Going solely by what the OP asked. 2 levers, 1 on each side of the door, that when used will open/close the door on use no matter the input of the other lever. what you're looking for is something called a XOR Gate (or XNOR Gate if you want to use that, but an XNOR is simply an inverted XOR). basically when the levers are in the same position, the door will close. you can avoid having to invert a XOR Gate simply by inverting the door itself. so that when it's powered off, it's open, and when powered on, it's closed. The door placement can be a little finisky, but if you mess with the circuits a bit, you can easily do it.

Although Minecraft can seem empty at times, it’s rare to be anywhere on a map where you can’t find creatures of some sort.

Minecraft mobs afford you the ability to interact (such as with villagers and taming animals), to eat (such as with the passive food-proving mobs), and the ability to fight (you’ll find more than a few creatures big and small that are rather unfriendly).
