For example, two of the five interviewees had minimal time to play inthe world due to difficulty downloading the Minecraft software. The internet bandwidth of theworkshop location was a bottleneck when all workshop participants downloaded simultaneously.Second, engaging with the game for a short amount of time may not be motivating enough forsome students to take an interest in programming. For example, a female student commented, "Itwas a fun experience. But I don't think it would push me so much to the point where I'd want topursue programming very hard. I think I'd need more exposure to coding in general for me tomake that decision." Third, when planning

These changes caninclude the building of new, inclusive, student-centered spaces to continue to move the workforward.In typical Engineering and Science educational systems, students often are not givenopportunities to build skills outside of narrowly defined, technical domains [1].
