From MineCraft to LitCraft -- with Professor Sally Bushell ...
If you haven’t already done so this is your chance to have a go at Litcraft – literary worlds in Minecraft (https://lancaster.ac.uk/litcraft ) The session will start with Sally giving a presentation about the project and a quick overview of the Treasure Island resource with relaxed Q and A as we go. You will then have the chance to go into the worlds yourselves and experience Litcraft: Treasure Island directly on the iPads. Depending on timings you might also get a sneak play on the forthcoming Sherlock Holmes build of Victorian London!
