Introduction to Ohio (ODE) Model Curriculum Social Studies

Published on Oct 5, 2012
The State Board of Education has adopted the Ohio Revised Standards in Social Studies as part of Ohio's New Learning Standards for academic learning. The Kindergarten - Grade 12 standards will be fully in use in Ohio classrooms by 2014-2015.
OHIO’S NEW LEARNING STANDARDS I Social Studies

ODE 21st Century Skills

The new content standards directly address the 21st century skills of civic literacy, financial and economic literacy
and global awareness. Links to other 21st century skills, such as problem solving, communication, media literacy
and leadership, are more fully developed in the model curriculum. The model curriculum provides instructional
support including content elaborations, expectations for learning, instructional strategies, instructional resources,
connections and essential questions.
Ohio's Learning Standards for Social Studies (adopted 2010)

​The State Board of Education adopted Ohio’s Learning Standards for Social Studies as a part of Ohio’s learning system. The Ohio Department of Education’s state assessments are based on these standards until the 2020-2021 school year.

Teacher Resource: Inquiry - Reflect

Inquiry is a cycle. Reflection is embedded throughout the inquiry process, but it is especially important at the end of a learning experience for students to think about what they have learned about the topic or idea and about inquiry itself. This video shows what new understandings and perspectives the students share with Jacqueline Braithwaite.

National Archives and Records Administration

The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) is the nation's record keeper. Of all documents and materials created in the course of business conducted by the United States Federal government, only 1%-3% are so important for legal or historical reasons that they are kept by us forever.

Research at the National Archives

​Learn what to expect when you research at the National Archives. This video addresses how to enter the National Archives building in Washington, DC, what security measures the National Archives uses, what you're allowed to bring into the research room with you, and how to use the research room and records.

What is National History Day?

This video, produced by HISTORY® at the 2008 National Contest, provides an introduction to NHD for students, teachers, and parents who are interested in participating in NHD programs.

Facing History and Ourselves

Picture
​www.facinghistory.org
Our mission is to engage students of diverse backgrounds in an examination of racism, prejudice, and antisemitism in order to promote the development of a more humane and informed citizenry. By studying the historical development of the Holocaust and other examples of genocide, students make the essential connection between history and the moral choices they confront in their own lives.

Facing History in 60 Seconds

​There are many classes that teach science, math, and English. There’s only one that teaches us to be more human.

Face It - Facing History and Ourselves

​Facing History and Ourselves empowers teachers and students to think critically about history and to understand the impact of their choices.

​Inquiry for Every Classroom
At inquirED, our mission is shaped by the questions we ask ourselves. They’re our inquiries - the kind of questions that have no right answers, that compel us to reflect, iterate, and learn. What are those guiding questions?
