As COVID-19 concerns prompt school closures around the world, many educators are turning to remote learning to keep students engaged. To help teachers and students stay connected to the classroom, Minecraft: Education Edition is now available through June 2020 for all educators and learners who have a valid Office 365 Education account...

We have also compiled a special Minecraft remote learning toolkit, which includes more than 50 lessons, STEM curriculum and project-based learning activities so educators can use Minecraft: Education Edition with their students whether they are in school, at home or in another remote learning environment.

Here’s how to setup Minecraft: Education Edition for your device or school:

• First, check here to see if your school account is eligible.
• If you have a valid O365 EDU account, fill out this form to request access to Minecraft: Education Edition through June 2020.
• Download Minecraft: Education Edition for Windows, Mac or iPad.

If you do not have a valid O365 EDU account, you can still download and try a free demo lesson on Windows, Mac or iPad. Check for news on other free Minecraft learning opportunities here and learn about device eligibility here.

Explore free lessons, online teacher training, and creative remote learning projects for Minecraft: Education Edition:

• Explore lessons in math, science, language arts, history and more in the remote learning toolkit, such as modelling plant and animal cells, building historical monuments and using coding to design a garden.
• Begin your Minecraft journey with this free online course for educators on the Microsoft Education Community (MEC) and check out this Starter Guide for tips on getting started with Minecraft in your school.
• If you’re looking for fun, engaging creative activities to engage your students, check out the Minecraft build challenges which range from STEM to art and storytelling.
