Online STEM platform and student competition go live in Ohio

- Shop Management
LIFT—Lightweight Innovations for Tomorrow, a national ManufacturingUSA institute, in partnership with Battelle, the Ohio STEM Learning Network, the Ohio Manufacturers’ Association, and Tennessee Tech University’s iCube, has launched MakerMinded, an online STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) learning and educational activity platform. The campaign helps impassion students about advanced manufacturing and provides them with STEM learning experiences to help set them on track toward advanced manufacturing careers.
The online platform at www.oh.makerminded.com connects Ohio’s middle school and high school students to more than 150 STEM and advanced manufacturing education experiences. It includes a searchable database of both national and local student programs, including online and in-person experiences, from manufacturing facility tours to engineering design challenges to technical skills competitions.
As students complete activities and programs, schools receive points and compete against other schools in Ohio. This year’s goal is to sign on 100 schools across Ohio and award the top-performing schools for their engagement in MakerMinded advanced manufacturing programs in May 2018.
Students and schools interested in joining the MakerMinded campaign can sign up at oh.makerminded.com/.
