The 2016 MACUL Makerspace
Stop by and learn with educators from around the state
The 2nd Annual MACUL Makerspace will again provide hands-on stations for educators. The Makerspace will be open from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM Thursday and from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM Friday upstairs in the DeVos Convention Center. Educators from across Michigan will share what they are making in their classrooms and be on hand to answer practical questions about what the Maker Movement means to classroom teachers and their students.
