Marcel has been one of the teachers in NH to most fully embrace the use of GIS in the classroom in recent years. Marcel has been an active participant in the NH Educational GIS Partnership (http://www.nhedgis.org) and has shown his peers here and around the country that GIS can be used in almost any subject (he is a math teacher!). Please consider voting for the Bow High school project. Votes can be cast once a day. Thanks!
