The School & Teacher Support team from the Ohio History Connection invites you to our Eighth Annual Professional Development Institute. The goal of this workshop is to bring social studies teachers and educators together and provide them with the opportunity to learn and discuss new ideas and resources that can be implemented in their classroom in the coming school year and beyond.

Throughout this day, educators will participate in various sessions focused on best practices for teaching social studies content. This year we are happy to have sessions tailored to social studies standards for elementary grade bands and middle/high school grade bands. To provide a unique and engaging program, we have collaborated with experts from the Myaamia Center, the National Afro-American Museum and Cultural Center, and the Ohio Center for Law-Related Education.

Fee: $120, includes breakfast and lunch
