I think there should be a mod where minecrafters can go to school to learn about building, redstone, brewing, and enchanting. Building class would be about people learning how to build structures more than a wooden cube. Redstone class would be about people learning how to power machinery and what not. Brewing would be about people learning how to make all the potions and what the potions do. Enchanting class would be about people learning what each enchantment does. To get a school, there would be a craftable spawner for it. The recipe would be
and the finishing product would be
Hope you enjoy my idea.
P.S. The new items would be, pencils, desks, chairs, chalkboard, and of course, the spawner.
I'm thinking the actual "class lessons" should be little per-recorded video clips that are made in a minecraft machinima type of way. maybe have an NPC at the front of each class room that's the teacher. the video clip is filmed in a replica of class room the lesson is supposed to take place in and the teacher uses the same skin as the person teaching the lesson in the video. maybe have the video start when you sit in a desk. and after watching a certain # of video's you get a test on the subject when you sit in the desk instead. you could also have home work like crafting a specific item and bringing it to the teacher that unlocks the next lesson.
This can be done already without mods.Enter SSG College Roleplay. Its a complete school with different classes,teachers,students,and more.It is really cool and is run by a minecrafter named Royal_Canuck.Theres tons of other people who do it including players like Blimpfire,pokemonprime,etc.

well thats my 2 cents on the idea anyway.
I like it but it seems a little too hard to do but if FewViews780 whants it it would be good!
try making some students teachers school fights make animate were you can punch kick do gymastics and maybe school paper were you can right on with a pencil to write with and add a playground were you can acctualy play on like how i said animate were you can do actions and maybe like add some PE items like cool ones were that you can use and ride and stuff
I rather like this idea. I have no idea how to mod for Multiplayer, but chances are I could do this Singleplayer. This mod wouldn't be a plugin, but would have to be installed both clientside and serverside.
You could, of course, do a rudimentary form of it in Bukkit using a pressureplate-delayer-commandblock-scoreboard system (courtesy of the new scoreboard system). Here's my idea of how to do it in a bukkit multiplayer world:
1) Install a plugin that limits the blocks players can place and/or break (something like this, but I'm not sure if it's updated) 2) Build a school house surrounded by protected blocks (using some block protection plugin; I think you can even just use Essentials) 3) In the school house, add "desks" that are in fact a stylized desk with a pressure plate for a chair 4) Bring redstone wire down into a large empty space beneath the school 5) Put a number of repeaters on the wire representing the amount of time you want one class to take 6) Place an anvil somewhere and grab yourself a Command Block 7) Rename the Command Block to whatever you want the teacher's name to be, ie, "Mr. Gregory" 8) Place the Command Block at the end of the wire/line of repeaters 9) Place the following code in the Command Block:
/scoreboard players add @p Schooling 1
10) Now you need to make that actually mean something. So, here we are going to create a new objective called "Schooling" (though you'll see it say "School Level" everywhere), and it makes it so that only Command Block (and ops) can alter the score. Just type this into the chat:
/scoreboard objectives add Schooling dummy School Level
11) Now the "learning" part of the school is set up. But, because I like to be fancy, I'm going to add SUBLEVELS! I'm adding 6 sublevels so that you can chose which branch of knowledge you wish to follow. So, I'm also inputting these commands (just regular chat):
Architecture lets you place better blocks, Creation lets you craft/smelt better ones, Farming lets you farm different plants, Alchemy is for brewing, Combat is for creating different levels of armor/weapons, and Wisdom lets you earn education levels faster! 12) Now I'm going to set it up so there are two buttons at the back of the school house for each of those six branches. a) One button (a stone button) is connected to a Command Block with the following code:
If you then hook up a comparator to the back of that Command Block, then you can hook it up to another Command Block, which will alter the block blacklist for that "@p". A good plugin will have that functionality, but I'm not sure if the plugin linked above can read "@p" as the nearest player's name. Oh well, we'll find out. If you actually want the Branch to be "readable", you can hook up a third Command Block using a repeater powering an opaque block next to two Command Blocks. It's a bit confusing, but if you know a little about redstone, you can figure it out the wiring easily enough. Though understanding what I just said is a completely different matter... b ) The other button (a wood button) is connected to a Command Block with a description of the branch. I would recommend that you have it whisper/tell/msg the description to the nearest player, so that the entire world doesn't have to hear it screamed to the sky. Here's an example of what I would put into the Wisdom description Command Block:
/tell @p[radius=3] Wisdom is the ability to earn School Levels faster. You can have up to 2 Wisdom levels.
13) And you're more or less done! Just do a little run through to check it out. Okay, I admit, this was a pretty lousy tutorial. But whatever, you can probably piece together the parts I accidentally left out. And I left out the ability to tier the branches. Just play around with it a bit using comparators and the "/testfor" command.
Also! Everytime a Command Block with the "@p" thingy is used, you should add something after that. Something along the lines of "@p[x=1,y=64,z=1,radius=1]" because then, someone who is somehow closer to the Command Block than the intended person will end up getting the benefits, instead of the hard working player. I would recommend reading the MinecraftWiki article on Command Blocks if you have the time.
I honestly don't know why I wrote all that, considering how long it has been since the original topic was posted. But since then, 1.5 has come out, so I think it's easier to do now. Whatever. Free time.
And, because the contents of that spoiler are a bit confusing, I made a map out of it! It's a rudimentary demonstration and isn't really that good, but whatever. It has signs describing what's happening, if you want to know. http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?btxbm0jrrf80wb7
Oh yeah, and I couldn't even follow my own instructions. So sorry about that.
Its a wonderful Idea! I don't think you need multiplayer for this idea. You can get NPC (villagers) and make them talk like students! Its just like Minecraft comes alive!
and the finishing product would be

Cool i like this too i will check it out sometime
Man these ideas rock
I like it but it seems a little too hard to do but if FewViews780 whants it it would be good!
this is true but if you whant quizs and pencilales i think that their should be a mod/plugin And some people like school but Me i hate it XD
