History Blocks

In the past years, countless historic buildings in the Middle East have been destroyed by countless wars. This huge cultural loss has an even greater impact for the next generations, which will never be able to see or visit these places. Having this in mind, the History Blocks project was created with the support of UNESCO. It is an initiative that takes place inside Minecraft Education Edition, a Microsoft platform with a pedagogical purpose used in schools around the world. The project counted on the participation of teachers who guided – through a pedagogical plan – the collaborative building of monuments that had been destroyed in the Middle East and that had already been projected in the platform.
