About the Maker(s)

Mark Supal

- Macomb Mathematics Technology Center

I teach technology to gifted and talented students. Over the past couple of years, I have spear-headed a “Green Club” as a school activity which focuses on promoting an awareness of energy and energy conservation at our school. I enjoy transforming theory that is learned in the classroom into practical “hands on” technology projects designed and constructed by students.
