When we will see videos and forms into minecraft education ?

Hi everybody, I am debating with my son's school to use Minecraft Education as a tool to complement the activities in his homeworks and online lessons, but, something that is sorely missed are :
1 - How to play videos into Minecraft, like the link above
2 - How to create forms (like google forms) into Minecraft education
I saw some tips about using code to read the writes into the books and quill, but, didn't work at all.
Then, would be great if microsoft implement those features soon, cause today we are working in forms and videos out of the minecraft and this thing stops the experience into the game.
Thks

Hello marcelo saldanha - we don't currently have native support to add video or forms to Minecraft. However, you can add a Non Player Character (NPC) to a world that links to a video or a form hosted by another service. Here's more information about using NPCs in Minecraft: Education Edition: https://minecrafteducation.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001429448-Adding-Non-Player-Characters-NPCs-
The video you shared displays a solution that uses a fairly complex resource pack to add video to Bedrock.

Hi CarrieD, tks. In deed I am already using the NPC with /commands and URLs as a resource in MEE. Maybe a possibility is to create a Mod to use book and quill like a google form and to use the item picture as a TV....But thks again and I will continue to search more about how to include lessons as challenges into the game.

Hello - If i may add to this discussion. I'm Nathan - I work for New Zealand Deaf Education - From an accessibility perspective - being able to embed video (within MEE) particularly sign language without getting pushed to an external service would be invaluable.
We have also used the NPC workaround it works ok - however ideally from our perspective(student/teacher) staying with the the MEE experience would be best.
We would welcome this functionality... please and thank you 😉😊.2
