be underwater without incurring heath damage. Fire Damage prevents players from receiving health damage due to lava or fire. Note that TNT damage will still cause harm to a player. On the right-hand panel, there are two areas of information. The Player Roster has a color-coded list of players in that particular world. Note that each player will have a unique color given to them. This color is shared on the map, as both their player name and their player icon have the same color. Below the Player Roster, the Chat window also has these colors applied. A teacher can also type in both chat and slash commands into the Chat Bar at the bottom of the window to communicate and affect the world.

Classroom Mode for Minecraft includes a time of day indicator to help educators know whether it is daytime or nighttime in the Minecraft world. When it is nighttime, the clock will show as black, and during daytime, the clock will show as light blue with a yellow sun moving across. Finally, the Minecraft world map is available. To navigate the map, you can scroll up and down to zoom the map in and out to gain the right view. Above the map, you will see the X Y Z coordinates where your cursor is on screen. You can also pan the map as needed. Note that large black areas of the map are parts of the world that have not been loaded or discovered yet by players. They will appear once players travel to these locations.
