Kids love the game. Teaching with it is the hard part.
Whether you’ve never opened Minecraft or you’ve wrestled with it for years, turning play into real, gradable learning is where most teachers get stuck.
“I’m not a gamer”
Most teachers never start: the game feels like it needs expertise they don’t have.
No lessons to start from
Where does the content even come from? Building a curriculum-aligned lesson inside a game takes hours no teacher has.
No proof of learning
A game world is a black box. Engagement you can’t see or grade doesn’t count. Not for standards, not for your principal.
How Arcademy works, in three steps.
From picking a lesson to celebrating what students made, the whole flow lives in one place.

A full library across subjects and grades, aligned to Common Core, NGSS, and ISTE standards. Customize any activity, or generate a new one with AI, learning goals and evidence requirements included.

GETTING SMART RESEARCH REPORT
Real learning you can see and measure, in a game they already love.
Get in touchQuestions teachers and schools ask.
Do I need to know how to play Minecraft?
No. Arcademy was built so every teacher can run game-based activities confidently. Activities come with instructions, and students’ work syncs to you automatically.
Our school has never used Minecraft. Can we start?
Yes. Most schools start exactly there. Ready-to-teach activities, step-by-step guides, and onboarding get your first class running fast. Many schools already have game-based learning licenses through Microsoft 365 Education without realizing it. We’ll check together on the demo.
Does it work with our LMS?
Yes. Rosters, SSO, and assignment posting sync through EdLink: Google Classroom, Canvas, Teams, Clever and more. No LMS? Just share a class link and students join on their own.
How is grading handled?
Your rubric, your call. Student work arrives organized and ready to score. Grading takes minutes, not evenings.
How do you handle privacy and security?
We’re FERPA compliant, COPPA safe, GDPR compliant, and ISO 27001 certified. Arcademy collects learning evidence and progress data only.
