OLC Ideate Labs for Online STEM: Innovating STEM Education 2020

With COVID pandemic, virtual labs are now a requirement rather than a "nice to have". There are many technologies and strategies that can complement and substitute for face-to-face STEM labs that are no longer viable due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

To help higher education institutions and faculty successfully respond to this new requirement. MERLOT and OLC will be offering for FREE, a 3-day OLC Ideate Labs for Online STEM: Innovating STEM Education 2020 conference on August 19-21, 2020 on strategies for teaching STEM labs online with various technologies. This free virtual expo will showcase a wide range of virtual and distance labs designed to support online STEM education, offered by both commercial and open educational resource (OER) providers.
