I did a short video tour of my oldest remaining Minecraft world built back between 2013 and 2016.
It's interesting to see how my build styles and techniques have changed, a reminder that the Minecraft learning journey never ends!

In my latest Minecraft Education Toolbox Tuesday video, I demonstrate how to create a automated, randomized jukebox using redstone and command blocks.

It's a disaster when students lose their Minecraft Education projects.

My latest blog post is devoted to helping you reducing classroom tears by demonstrating best practices for backing up and exporting Minecraft work!

Fairly frequently there are queries about using mods, packs or addons with Minecraft Education.

All the relevant information, warnings and questions answered, plus some handy links to explore are in my latest blog posting!

Years ago when the Artemis was just getting started, I created a realistic Lunar build experience called "Moonbase Shackleton" in @PlayCraftLearn .

As we have a lot of exciting Artemis news currently, I thought I'd re-share my trailer for it: https://t.co/k1A8La8EnO

Next on my London excursion (all my trips turn into Minecraft research trips), two of my biggest passions meet in one place! I had a great chat with a staff member about @PlayCraftLearn in the official shop (who was curious about my hat!)

Guesses as to where Chicken & I are?

On a little @PlayCraftLearn #Minecraft expedition.

Guess where Chicken and I are!

Have some suggestions of your own? I would love to hear them!

BETT London 2026!
I'm looking forward to volunteering and hanging out at the @PlayCraftLearn #MinecraftEducation booth again at BETT 2026, sharing my passion for all things Minecraft Education!

If you're at the conference, do stop by to say "hello"!

It's Toolbox Tuesday, Season 3!

In this video, I demonstrate how to create your own #Minecraft @PlayCraftLearn skin using #Blockbench!

You'll learn some texturing techniques and how to pack your texture file in a .mcpack for importing into Minecraft.

The new Minecraft mob egg graphics are not only refreshing and adorable - they're a big win for accessibility! 🥚

These redesigned mob eggs make identifying and selecting the right egg easier for everyone, including individuals who are colorblind.

@PixelandPoly This is amazing! Thanks for sharing!

Here's my circle and triangle building guide for Minecraft. Hopefully it can be helpful for your building! #guide #chart #Minecraft

[thatminecraftguy 🌍 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇨🇦 @thatminecraft12]

Hurray, the "allow trusted skins" toggle is back in Minecraft Education v1.21.90.1!

Having this option back in game allows students to again showcase their talents, and create skins that represent themselves and ideas!

Thank-you @PlayCraftLearn for listening to our feedback!

Is Summer time is a good time re-post my roof building guide? #Minecraft #guide

Enjoying the morning with Digging Dinos play along with @MrCoachK15 and the #MinecraftEdu ambassadors. Lots of brainstorming happening on how to use this new world with different types of lessons. @i2eEDU is a #Minecraft creator, and we've loved contributing worlds to the game library! #GBL
