How Do I Log In to Minecraft Education Edition?

In order to use Minecraft Education Edition, students and staff would need to log into the program using a Microsoft account.

Thankfully, all students and staff have a Microsoft account connected to their CPS credentials. All that the students and staff would need to do is to put their FULL @CPS.EDU email address and their CPS password.

What Do I Do If I Get a Log in Error / Student Is Unable to Login ?

If a student is unable to login to Minecraft Education Edition using their CPS credentials, please try resetting the student's CPS password and waiting 5 to 20 minutes before retrying.

If the student is still unable to login, please contact the CPS ITS Service Desk at 773-553-3925.

How Does a Team Record Their Video?

Students can also use their cell phones to record their video, however, please make sure that the video is stable enough to see the screen and the build.
