Author: Clark Barnett

Clark Barnett has been an educator for 13 years. He currently creates and innovates with his 4th grade students in the Conejo Unified School District using 3D printing, arduino electronics, and whatever else they can imagine with.

Mr. Barnett earned his Master of Education degree in learning technologies from Pepperdine University.

Working Prototypes
