Mods

Downloading addons in the game

Addons are the parent term for mods. While mods are exclusive to the Java Edition of Minecraft, addons can be installed and used for other versions, such as Minecraft Education Edition.

This edition has many different types of addons/mods available for it, including vehicle mods, furniture mods, animal mods, and even mods that add security cameras. Players can find them on Minecraft’s official website and various other sites.

To install an addon, players have to open the game, navigate to Play, and, from there, to Import. Clicking on this option will open the player’s Windows Explorer; from there, they can navigate to where they have downloaded the add-on they want to install.

Selecting the add-on and pressing OK will add the addon to the game's Education Edition, allowing players to use mods and add-ons in the game.
