Are you an educator with valuable insights to share? The deadline to apply to present a session at the 2025 Ohio STEM Innovation Summit is fast approaching. This is your chance to connect with fellow educators and strengthen the Ohio STEM community at the Ohio STEM Learning Network’s annual conference.

Know someone who should present? Recommend them with the new printable card from this post.

This year’s summit features session tracks that align with the core pillars of the STEM designation rubric and quality model: Culture for Learning, Learning and Teaching, Pathways to Success in Careers, and Support for Disadvantaged and Underrepresented Groups in STEM.

Submitting a session proposal allows you to reflect on your experiences and share your knowledge with peers. The best sessions are often those led by current practitioners.

Think about a lesson, project, or initiative that worked well with your students. How could you turn it into an engaging conference session?

The proposal process is a chance to advocate for the methods you value while enhancing your skills as an educator. Presenting at conferences helps develop critical abilities like reflecting on practices, communicating key takeaways, and designing meaningful learning experiences for your audience.

You have until February 3rd to submit a proposal and session description.

Maybe the presentation needed isn’t yours? Sometimes great presenters just need a little push to submit. If that describes a colleague of yours, print off the card below. You could help recruit the best presentation at summit this year.

Let’s keep the momentum going and make the 2025 Ohio STEM Innovation Summit the most vibrant yet. The STEM community in Ohio relies on educators like you to share your expertise, empower others, and strengthen our network. Consider contributing your knowledge this June!
