Introduction
Building on over a decade of success with the Hour of Code (HOC), our new global initiative is designed to help students and educators everywhere take their first step into understanding and creating with AI. Through hands-on, easy-to-follow activities, learners around the world demystify AI and imagine what's possible when they harness it for good.
The future isn't something we wait for-it's something we build—together!
Join the global movement known as Hour of AI (HOAI) with Minecraft Education! Minecraft's Hour of AI experience is a one-hour introduction to AI and computer science (CS), and it provides a fun and engaging way to introduce students to coding. This module provides all the resources and information to facilitate a successful learning experience with students. It also provides information about the previous Minecraft Education Hour of Code themes.
Facilitating Minecraft's Hour of AI doesn't require any background or experience in computer science or coding. This module is for educators of any age group.
