Paul Shircliff is not your typical makerspace or STEM educator. He doesn’t just know about coding or cardboard or tools or electronics…he knows about ALL of it! And when someone says something about a makerspace, he’s quick to remind that “the real makerspace is between your ears”
Paul has been a nuclear engineer, a teacher, and most importantly a maker. He’s currently working with the Uplands Maker Mobile Program (a part of the Indiana University Education program) helping bring Maker & STEM activities and skills to kids throughout South & Central Indiana.
