About the Carcraft project

Carcraft is an innovative aproach to VET education born after experiencing the effects that the COVID pandemic lockdowns had in education.

According to UNESCO, over 1,5 billion learners were affected by COVID in the more than 170 countries that decided to close schools as a response to the spread of the virus. Europe had to quickly adjust to this new educational reality: schools adapted and delivered courses and training remotely (not always successfully), but neither teachers nor students were prepared for the transition.

And thus, Carcraft was born to support VET students continue their education when they cannot attend classes!

OUR GOAL

To develop a high-performing digital education ecosystem by creating digitally competent and confident teachers and education and training staff offering:

  • State-of-the-art high-quality learning content
  • User-friendly tools and platforms that respect the most strict privacy and ethical standards

We seek to modernize VET education proposing alternative and creative solutions.

WHO IS IT FOR?

Carcraft is a tool for eveyone in the VET sector:

  • Students

  • Teachers

  • Educators​

It’s Minecraft…

Carcraft takes place in the blockey and squarey world of Minecraft, an already existing and popular game. Minecraft is a virtual open world video game where players can dig, mine, build, craft and enchant things among other things. The game is typically described as a “sandbox game” because players can interact with their own worlds and experiences where the possibilities are truly limitless. Players can also modify the game to create new gameplay mechanics, items, and assets. 

Minecraft has a huge vibrant community of amateur creators improving it on a daily basis!

… for Schools

Carcraft takes advantage of the Education edition of Minecraft designed specifically for use in educational establishments. This version includes the Classroom Mode, which can be used to access a range of features especially designed to interact with students while hosting a multiplayer game by managing settings from a central user interface.
