Flashback to OAS April Events: Student Wildlife Research Symposium (SWRS)

This inspiring, career-connected annual event showcasing student research focused on wildlife and natural resource issues was held during the Annual Conference of the Environmental Education Council of Ohio (EECO) at Shawnee State Park on April 9, 2026. Students shared their research through podium presentations and poster sessions, networked with peers and wildlife professionals from ODNR Division of Wildlife, and viewed a variety of fish from the Ohio River provided by the Ohio River Sanitation Commission (ORSANCO) in their Life Below the Waterline traveling freshwater aquarium.

Pulling it all together was the keynote by Jordan Skates, Manager, Appalachian Hills/Wolf Creek Wildlife Areas for the Division of Wildlife. Jordan had been a student presenter at the 2018 SWRS and a multi-year participant in OAS Science Days. She shared how impactful experiential learning and networking were in influencing her career and how they continue to shape her career success. . Kudos to all the students and teachers for their participation in this wonderful event!

Celebrating OAS April Events: Environmental Education Council of Ohio (EECO) Annual Conference at Shawnee State Park, April 10-12, 2026

The Ohio Academy of Science spent the weekend connecting with teachers, non-formal educators, and environmental professionals from around the state who engage youth and adults in hands-on learning experiences in and out of the classroom. Attendees enjoyed prefect spring weather for field trips and outdoor sessions! Thank you to those who ignored the lure of the sunshine and attended our Ohio STEP workshop to learn how this STEM entrepreneurship program can inspire students to follow their passions by creating products and service solutions to personal or societal problems.

Science Day and the preparation for it is a unique and fulfilling experience for students. Through their projects, students have the opportunity to explore fields of science and to learn and practice critical thinking, inquiry, technological design, and investigative skills. On March 28, 2026, the University of Rio Grande hosted a Regional Science Day competition for 5th-12th grade students attending schools in Adams, Gallia, Lawrence, Meigs, Pike, and Scioto Counties. Congratulations to all the students who participated in the event and enjoyed the opportunity to share their research with their science-minded peers and their judges.
