Fractor’s DaVinci Interface
The DaVinci Interface provides a new model for the use of interactive media in the classroom. Combining a dynamic web portal with mobile outreach technology, Fractor’s DaVinci Interface creates a 24/7 student community inspired by learning, connected to relevant breaking news and rich with opportunities to affect change. Designed for secondary and postsecondary educational environments, the DaVinci Interface allows students to connect to, learn about and take action on critical events taking place around the world. In addition, it encourages students to become self-learners, allowing them to build on their interests to inspire their own education. The DaVinci Interface will serve as a 
centerpiece to new and exciting curricula for engaging young people with the world.
An example of the DaVinci Interface in Action
Imagine a school system wants to explore issues surrounding clean water in third world countries. The DaVinci interface would organize teacher posted articles and activities into weekly tabs and provide students with insight into the opportunities to take action on solutions to water problems. To provide an array of quality service opportunities for the students, we will reach out a select group of local, national and international nonprofit organizations as well as providing an open call for action submissions from nonprofits nationwide.
Interschool co-operation, prizes and a 24/7 interactive experience that engages and inspires students long after they leave the classroom enhance the experience. Supporting articles and daily news will enrich the conversations in class and be forwarded to student’s cell phones, extending the learning environment throughout the day. Partnerships with mobile technology and cellular service providers will allow Fractor to reach out to students at no cost to them. We will aggregate news directly from the ground utilizing blogging services and leverage Pulitzer’s award winning crises reporting task force to provide an engaging platform for teachers to present daily events from a unique first-hand perspective. Students can ask questions, determine the actions they wish to take from a large list of sponsored selections or even develop their own service projects. To complete the cycle of community benefit, we seek out relationships with local media outlets to publicize the actions these students are taking and offer a rich story local audiences can rally around.

Our goal is to provide an exciting and interactive tool that will propel the inspirational introduction of new ideas through the aggregation of relevant daily events, service and civic action, involvement in issue-based social netoworks and participatory activities that increase compassion and empathy. The DaVinci Interface will strengthen civic activism and improve student motivation within existing communities as well as across geographically proximate but socially and economically distanced ones.
Fractor aims to energize education in schools with a scalable model that can be applied to almost any curriculum and replicated nationally and worldwide.
