Geography of Minecraft

My son has spent a lot of time this summer getting to grips with the pocket edition of Minecraft. He doesn't usually play the Survival Mode of the game, where you have to defend yourself against zombies or other attackers.
He concentrates on the Creation mode of the game, where you place blocks and other elements to construct buildings, landscapes and other features...

Interestingly, a week or so ago while moderating the Secondary Geography Quality Mark entries, we had an amazing video made by a student at a school in Hong Kong included as part of the evidence, where he used Minecraft to explain the different phases of a river as it developed. It was an awesome piece of work!

I've started to explore some other possible uses of Minecraft for Geography. 
Does anyone use it in the classroom ?

I followed @jokay on Twitter. He was involved in a Minecraft Teachmeet that the great Derek Robertson organised. He is also involved in the Massively Minecraft WIKI.

My son says that he particularly likes Minecraft because 'you can make anything you want...'.
He made an Olympic Stadium and other buildings such as a fish and chip shop.

The Minecraft WIKI offers a range of resources.
It seems that players often tend to focus on one particular aspect of the game, as my son is doing.

The Massively Minecraft website is a focus for those interested in the tool.

Thanks to Lee Burns for pointing me in the direction of some of this help.
