DO 5: DESIGN AN INTERACTIVE CHILDREN'S BOOK

> DEVELOP ENGAGING BOOK & FIELD TEST IN ELEMENTARY CLASSROOMS







LEARN!

Remember the joy of holding and reading a real book cover to cover? How relevant and prevalent is that experience to the middle schoolers and children of today? How can we apply the concept of “remixing” and being inspired by the most successful innovations in the book industry to create interactive real books that are highly engaging to younger children?  We at ESTAD believe that children have the minds, creativity, and ingenuity to create successful, interactive real books that will engage and teach young minds today. Explore a variety of interactive books (analog not digital).  Apply concepts of design thinking to create an interactive book kit that will be field tested in K-2 classrooms.
