Through this unit, students act as engineers who are given the challenge to design laparoscopic surgical tools. After learning about human anatomy and physiology of the abdominopelvic cavity, especially as it applies to laparoscopic surgery, students learn about the mechanics of elastic solids, which is the most basic level of material behavior. Then, they explore the world of fluids and learn how fluids react to forces. Next, they combine their understanding of the mechanics of solids and fluids to understand viscoelastic materials, such as those found in the human body. Finally, they learn about tissue mechanics, including how collagen, elastin and proteoglycans give body tissues their unique characteristics. In the culminating hands-on activity, student teams design their own prototypes of laparoscopic surgical robots remotely controlled, camera-toting devices that must fit through small incisions, inspect organs and tissue for disease, obtain biopsies, and monitor via ongoing wireless image-taking. They use a (homemade) synthetic abdominal cavity simulator to test and iterate the prototype devices.

World War II ration memorabilia collection, 1942-1947.
The Office of Price Administration and Civilian Supply was established by Presidential Executive Order 8734 on April 11, 1941, in an effort to control inflation. The civilian supply function of the agency was transferred to the Office of Production Management in August of 1941 and the name was shortened to the Office of Price Administration (OPA). The Emergency Price Control Act (January 30, 1942) established the purposes of the agency as follows: to stabilize prices and rents and prevent unwarranted increases in them; to prevent profiteering, hoarding and speculation; to assure that defense appropriations were not dissipated by excessive prices; to protect those with fixed incomes from undue impairment of their living standards; to assist in securing adequate production; and to prevent a post-emergency collapse of values." The OPA fixed price ceilings on all commodities except farm products and controlled rents in defense areas. The first rationing program, for automobile tires, was initiated December 27, 1941. There were two types of rationing programs. The first was a certificate program, where an applicant had to meet eligibility standards and show need to a local ration board before receiving a certificate permitting purchase of the rationed item. This type of program was applied to ties, automobiles, typewriters, bicycles, rubber footwear and stoves. The second program was a coupon or stamp type for which all civilians were eligible. These programs were administered through local banks and covered foods, fuel oil, gasoline and shoes. Rationing continued throughout World War II and by the end of November 1945 only the sugar and rubber tire rationing programs remained. Tire rationing ceased on December 31, 1945. Sugar rationing continued until June 11, 1947. The Office of Price Administration was dissolved April 1, 1947.

Welcome! This website is a library of curated age-appropriate assessments and transition and employment resources for educators working with transition-aged youth in Ohio schools. Viewers can choose to navigate this site by using the horizontal menu or site map that displays internal pages alphabetically.
Educators and families will find formal and informal assessments designed to support transition-aged youth as they work toward life experiences beyond high school. These resources include general assessments for educators, families, and students; assessments for post-secondary employment, college, and independent living; and assessments for health and medical concerns.
Also included on this site are transition and employment resources from the Ohio Department of Education, Ohio Center for Autism and Low Incidence (OCALI), Ohio Employment First, OhioMeansJobs, Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services, National Technical Assistance Center on Transition, and others.
The vetting of assessments and resources represents a collaborative effort by Ohio’s 16 State Support Teams. This website is designed and maintained by State Support Team 1. Contact State Support Team 1 or call 419.720.8999 if assistance is required.

In 2017, The State of Ohio introduced new technology standards for K-12. Many teachers are probably already fulfilling a number of Ohio’s new Learning Standards for Technology, although they may not be aware of the fact. With practical insights from creative educators successfully integrating the standards, as well as the state Department of Education, this session will provide the groundwork for all educators to understand what they are already accomplishing, as well as minor changes that could help students achieve even more.
