The passage of the institute to the university can be complicated. Getting used to new dynamics and meeting new people is always a challenge, but some have it a little more difficult. Therefore, the student Eden Turner has set out to help people with autism so that your transit to university life is somewhat more bearable. To do this, he has used Minecraft and has built a virtual university that will serve to make friends while playing. Its creator has recreated parts of the University of Monfort in Leicester, BBC reports.
The Minecraft DMU project is part of Eden’s final degree work, which has declared the following: “It has been a beautiful and surprising use of my time for the task. It has helped me to take confidence“The university has assured that the opportunities when building in Minecraft are” infinite “and that it has been a very funny experience, without anyone telling him what he should or should not create.” There are no guidelines when you enter for the first time in the world, “he added.

Creating a sense of belonging with Minecraft
Clare Squires, who works with people with autism at the University of Monfort, has said they use their Minecraft server to start building community and sense of belonging. “We use it with new applicants who have not yet started the university. Students can play with people who do not know and start making acquaintances and friends before stepping on the campus.” As Squires points out, Some students do not socialize in bars and clubsso Minecraft can be a starting point for these people. “Anxiety is an important part of autism for many people”, especially when they go to a strange place where they do not know how to function. “This will relieve what Eden has built.”
