Free access to the community server, excluding unauthorized professional teaching. Happy coding!

Empowering children

Over the past 10 years, we’ve poured our passion into developing our Java server plugin entirely for free, guided by a mission to empower every child in mastering STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics).

The heartwarming feedback from the children attending our classes serves as a constant source of inspiration, driving us to continuously enhance the solution and extend its benefits to other teachers and individuals.

Moreover, recognizing that not all schools have the technical know-how to set up and manage a Minecraft server, we offer hosting services. Our aim is to simplify the process, allowing schools to focus on teaching while we handle the intricate technical details.

The coding platform relies on our Minecraft plugin, providing a practical and user-friendly alternative for running classes when compared to Minecraft Education Edition. The freely downloadable plugin is a slightly more restricted version of the hosting plugin we offer, yet it is fully suitable for use in small classes.

It’s not just a project; it’s a commitment to fostering accessible and enriching learning experiences.

CREATING PROGRAMS

1: EDIT

The Visual Editor is very intuitive. Code blocks are assembled like in a puzzle.

The transfer of the program to the Minecraft server is done automatically. The user has just to indicate the player name in the visual editor.

2: RUN

In order to run the program the student can call their programs using the Minecraft command “vm” followed by the name chosen for the command.
example: /vm loop

3: PLAY

Students find tremendous motivation in the ability to interact directly with their own Minecraft creations. This hands-on experience serves as a powerful catalyst, encouraging them to delve deeper into programming, refine their existing programs, and even embark on exciting journeys to expand their digital worlds.

The sense of ownership and creative control they gain over their in-game constructions ignites a passion for coding and problem-solving, fostering an environment where learning becomes an exhilarating adventure.

As they witness the tangible results of their coding efforts within the Minecraft universe, their enthusiasm for the subject grows, driving them to further explore the realms of programming and technology.
