Children to design new national park in Minecraft
Students in Adelaide, Australia, have been asked to create the national park in Minecraft which could be constructed in the real world.
Students aged from nine to 12 are being challenged to design their own designs in the blocky 3D world.
These results could be used to upgrade existing national parks in Adelaide.
The government has provided nearly $10.4m Australian dollars (PS5.4m) for the redesigns.
It was eager to find a way to involve young people in its processes.
"This competition is part an engagement project with the community that asks everyone of all ages to suggest facilities that will encourage them to spend more time in national park," reads the Natural Resources, Adelaide website which announced the prize.
"The State government has set aside $10.4m for parks projects, so some of the ideas that you and your class comes up with could end up being used."
It added that the only rule is that any design has to be possible to be realized in the real world.
"The park features must be in harmony with the natural surroundings by taking into consideration the animals and plants that live there."
Ideas could include trails for bushwalking, mountain biking or horse riding, barbecue and picnic areas - or something totally different," it suggested.
Redesigning slums
There is a growing trend create more ambitious Minecraft designs.
As part of an educational initiative that is part of an educational program, the Danish government has mapped the entire country.
In 2012, Mojang, the creators of Minecraft joined forces with the UN to assist them in designing cities in countries in need.
They recreated public spaces through the game, and then shared it with community groups in which participants could alter them.
The project has inspired fresh ideas for green spaces in Kiberia (the largest slum in Nairobi) and was used to design a new waterfront in Les Cayes, Haiti's largest city.
