Students are learning to use emerging technologies as future instructors. We can learn a lot from a video game. What basic power tool best repels a zombie horde, for example, or the proper combination of kicks and punches to bludgeon an opponent into submission. Even how to determine the volume of a swimming pool, as in measuring its dimensions and then multiplying length by width by height. Yes, math. In a video game. And not just in any video game, but one of the more popular games of all time, Minecraft, a LEGO-meets 8-bit open world game played by millions worldwide.
