UC Berkeley hosted a virtual graduation on Minecraft
Kudos to UC Berkeley for using a virtual world. Somehow I read the choice of virtual world as a comment on our education system.Even if they had a restriction on using Open Source only, they could have used OpenSim. If they had been ok with commercial servers and free accounts, they could have used Second Life.Instead they used Minecraft, and "A team of more than 100 UC Berkeley students built the virtual Blockeley University in the popular Minecraft video game"[1].Where is the lasting contribution of this? How can others reuse these students' work?[1] https://news.berkeley.edu/2020/05/16/watch-blockeley-uc-berk...
