This session explores how Minecraft Education can be used to design and deliver meaningful assessment experiences in the classroom. From documenting learning as it happens to showcasing final projects, you'll learn how Minecraft can support both formative and summative assessment in creative and practical ways.

You'll also discover how in-game tools like the Camera, Portfolio, Book & Quill and Chalkboards can help students reflect, present and share their understanding in a more visible and student-centred way.
