Computer Science A company that provides STEM professional development and classes has launched a new course intended to teach students how to program using Minecraft and Python. Python Temple, an initiative from STEM teaching company BrainStorm STEM Education, is inviting students to use Minecraft and Python to learn how to code. The lessons are taken in the form of a Minecraft adventure game and involve challenges that must be beaten using the open-source programming language Python. Gamification provides students with a "captivating and educational coding experience”, says BrainStorm CEO Darren Jones. Students will have access to a set number of games for each lesson – some free, others paid – which they can play on their own or as part of a group.
