Zooburst: []

 Description: I have decided to use ZooBurst, which is a fun and interactive tool for students to use in their classrooms. Zooburst is an awesome way for children to digitally story tell, and is does this by easily allowing them to create their own 3-D pop up books. The books are published live online, and don't require much, but a web browser that is capable of running Adobe Flash Plug in. The authors can manipulate and arrange characters and other images for their books, courtesy of the built in database of over 10,000 free images! Once the book is made, you can view them by looking in on any angle-a real 3D way to present an assignment! I have created a cover for my book with Zooburst on Jason Pollack, which can be used for an Elementary school art class, as an introduction to his work, and what it was composed of. This is only one possible lesson plan. The image for the cover was actually created by a group of children I worked with in a program last Spring. I think you can basically create any book on any topic to deliver information to children in a creative way, as well as allowing them to create their own Zoobursts for projects, and other unique ways of learning.  Here is the link to my cover: []  username: dcurcio
