Overview
I established a Minecraft Server elective class and created a custom Java Minecraft server with plugins. The project combined software development with teaching.

Project Case Study
Custom Minecraft Server
A Java-based Minecraft server and elective class designed around programming, game systems, and teaching.
Server Development
The server used custom plugins and game modifications to create experiences that were not available in a standard Minecraft installation.
Teaching
Approximately 20 elementary students participated in the class. I taught gameplay alongside basic computer skills, using a familiar game as an approachable environment for learning.
Custom Events
I designed and hosted unique events using plugins and game modifications. These events gave students new challenges while making the server feel like a shared community rather than a standard game server.
What I Learned
This project taught me that good technical systems are also about their users. Designing for students required balancing technical complexity, reliability, fun, and accessibility.
