After more than a year of collaboration with Microsoft Canada, Minecraft: Education Edition, and the Louis Riel School Division (LRSD) announce the release of
Manito Ahbee Aki, the first Minecraft teaching resource of its kind in the world, that honours, celebrates and explores the Manitoba Anishinaabe community.
Players in
Manito Ahbee Aki, which translates to âthe place where the Creator sitsâ in English, are transported to
Manito Ahbee, a site located in Manitoba’s western Whiteshell area, before European contact in North America.
âIn the true spirit and intent of the Truth and Reconciliation Calls to Action, this project gives students in our schools and around the world an opportunity to learn and develop a deeper understanding about an Indigenous nation in Canada,â said Christian Michalik.
