Teams of kids and young adults worked with researchers to design a website to inspire conservation action. They generated ideas for digital interactives and physical projects. The kids wanted to blend reality and fiction to make learning fun. They proposed interactive exhibits that allowed gliding, shaking and creating physical representations of digital designs. The website would teach kids about animals and environments while encouraging everyday actions and volunteering to help conservation efforts. Proceeds would support animal conservation. Next steps include further developing the design and evaluating prototypes.
