'Minecraft Education Edition' is Available On Chromebooks

In the midst of a new school year that could see students never stepping into a classroom, Microsoft is bringing Minecraft: Education Edition to Chromebooks.



Chrome OS Minecraft: Education Edition will allow cross-platform play on Windows, iPad, and Mac versions. Students will be able to socialize and collaborate on projects regardless of their device. Microsoft is also updating the software to add 11 new STEM lessons as well as a Minecraft world to teach students about pollination and bees. A better library of lesson plans and tagged learning abilities are part of the update, too.



The company claims Chrome OS, iPad and Windows devices will download the update automatically. However, Mac users will need to download the update manually. Schools that are already using Minecraft: Education Edition in their classrooms won't have to worry about changing their subscription. Microsoft will add the Chrome OS version to its Microsoft 365 for Education A3 and A5 licenses.

Minecraft Education Edition is available since the year 2016. It's not surprising that it's only being made available to Chromebooks this year. Google's computing platform is the leading one for education. As of the year 2019 the company reported that there were 30 million Chromebooks being used by schools across the world. Chromebooks were responsible for 60 percent of all laptops and tablets purchased in the US for classrooms for K-12 students in 2018. What's interesting about this release is that it gives Chrome OS users an official method of installing Minecraft without sideloading the game onto their device.
