WELCOME

Welcome to the facilitator guide of the Mind Craft program. This is approximately an 8 week program, depending on the pace of your group. Loosely based off of popular games like SimCity and Minecraft, is a program that allows students to create their own communities and build up their society from scratch using hands on activities. Each week a task is given to them to build their society. It will start o from scratch where they have to think of tools that enable building a society, and by 8th week, they’ll have functioning buildings and rules. This program aims to touch base on skills involving art, engineering, and teamwork interaction. By the end of each session, students should have used skills involving teamwork, leadership, and creativity. This is an incremental program where students will be building on top of their project. It would be ideal to have a place to store their project as they continue growing it. It may be possible to disassemble the project if needed though.
