Description
Use the Makey Makey to create an interactive poster. A Scratch project is programed to make sounds, and takes input from the MakeyMakey.
For example, students conduct research on a topic and create a Scratch project that shares their learning. They then design and make a poster about their research that complements the Scratch project. Finally they connect the two for an interactive display.

Details
The front of the poster, with clickable buttons. A Raspberry Pi is used to run the Scratch program and accept input from the MakeyMakey, but any device that can run Scratch and has a speaker will work.
The back of the poster. Various buttons connect to the Makey Makey, which converts button-presses into basic key commands and triggers events within a Scratch Project. One line from the button connects to Earth (or Ground), the other connects to a letter or arrow.
