Minecraft Education Edition Download
Minecraft Education Edition is a modified version of Minecraft that teachers can use for everything from Indian history to probability, with the possibilities bounded only by the teacher's imagination (or willingness to construct their own lesson). Minecraft Education Edition offers plenty of pre-made lessons on wide-ranging topics, but the game can be used in any number of creative ways.
To download the game, educators need an Office 365 Education account. Account holders can download a free trial with a limited number of logins or purchase a temporary license on a yearly basis. All these options are listed on the game's official website, available here.
Licenses are purchased either through Authorized Education Partners or the Microsoft Store for Education.
Minecraft Education Edition is available on Windows, macOS, and iPads.
