The BetterGeoEdu project gives primary teachers the resources to teach children about raw materials, sustainability, and the circular economy while using Minecraft to do so. Minecraft is a hugely popular game where users must extract raw materials to build their own world where they then explore and try to survive.
The project has created a modification for the game called BetterGeo that transforms the user experience into a more educational one. The modification allows players to learn how important geology and raw materials are in everyday life while also integrating environmental issues into the game.
