Many students' learning styles are not well served by traditional classroom educational approaches. While interactive media tools can be effective in addressing shortcomings in traditional approaches, few projects provide practical solutions that support collaborative, discovery-based educational models while simultaneously addressing different student learning styles. In this paper, we describe the realization and outcomes of a recent 15-week after-school mediated education program undertaken with elementary school students in our region. We present our integrated approach to research and practice in the design of new tools, curricula, and assessment strategies for K-12 education that employ emerging interactive media technologies in the classroom. We focus on our efforts to support learners through discovery-based activities, cooperative and collaborative learning strategies, and the realization of new expressive forms that arise from the intersection of arts education and technology.
