Leave it to The Escapist to find some really cool stuff. Apparently, a school is Sweden has a mandatory Minecraft class. Now, I'm not sure how I feel about having a mandatory class that uses a game, but the class sounds very useful. According to the teacher, Monica Ekman, "They learn about city planning, environmental issues, getting things done, and even how to plan for the future." Minecraft, essentially, is used to teach urban planning. It will be interesting to see how it turns out. Maybe we will see more students interested in civil engineering!
