What is Esports?
Esports, short for electronic sports, refers to organized, competitive video gaming. It differs from traditional video gaming due to its competitive nature and often includes an engaging spectator aspect, similar to traditional sports. Like traditional sports, esports requires teamwork, communication, critical and strategic thinking, creativity, sportsmanship, and leadership.
A significant benefit of Minecraft Education is its ability to combine game-based learning with competition to support progress in sports.
One example created by my students through Minecraft Education involved learning about esports, coding, and game design within a 3D environment.
