I'd say that I actually Learned a lot about computers by playing Blockland. for example, when you have to open folders to get the add-ons in, I never knew that! I learned how by Playing Blockland! You could also learn how to be better socail-wize. (blockland Is very socail.) And most of all, you could have fun with your classmates. Plus, you learn to build. AND, The school could use one ID. So Everyone would use the same ID.
Post anything else that you might learn form Blockland.

No, that would mean that schools would have to let 1st graders on, and more 1st graders there are, the more idiots the admins of EVERY server have to ban..

When I stared using Scratch at school, I was miles ahead of my class due to Blockland's Eventing system.

Most likely not, they'd probably use a locally hosted server. Online servers would require permission slips. Many servers also would not have the capacity for 20 students. Furthermore the school staff would want admin accounts.
Blockland would probably need a few modifications for this sort of setting. I imagine you would want a server based chat filter and the word list would need to be more robust. User accounts should probably be tied to a particular computer, so that if someone does something bad they know computer 6 did it and they can take appropriate action. You would need the ability to turn on and off certain client options, possibly even just lock people out of the join internet server or option menus. Player chat should be logged as well.
