Ohio Distance Learning Initiative Webinar
There is a critical need to engage Ohio’s children during this difficult time. The OLC and the Center of Science and Industry (COSI) have joined forces to support Ohio’s families and capitalize on Summer Reading Programs! The Ohio Distance Learning Initiative is an effort being led by COSI and the State of Ohio, executed in collaboration with the Ohio Library Council as well as other museums and cultural institutions, to provide up to 50 FREE Learning Lunchboxes to each of Ohio’s 251 public library systems.
The Learning Lunchboxes are hands-on fun kits built in partnership with NASA. The space-themed kits provide five days’ worth of learning content. The boxes promote integrated learning in science, technology, engineering, arts, math, and the humanities. Each box activity is aligned with Ohio learning standards.
Registration: FREE* for OLC members only.
*Individual members, trustees or administrators of OLC Institutional member libraries.
NOTE: After registering, you will receive a confirmation email with a link to join the webinar.
Participation Form
Each public library system interested in participating in the program and wishing to receive 50 FREE Learning Lunchboxes should complete the form. Only ONE participation form may be submitted per library system. When you complete the form, list the top in-person and/or digital resources your library wishes to highlight (library resources will be promoted as part of the Ohio Distance Learning Initiative and COSI’s Roadshows across the state).
