Ohio State is in the process of revising websites and program materials to accurately reflect compliance with the law. While this work occurs, language referencing protected class status or other activities prohibited by Ohio Senate Bill 1 may still appear in some places. However, all programs and activities are being administered in compliance with federal and state law.

An Interdisciplinary Model for Teaching about the Human Impacts of Pandemics

Pandemic Pedagogies is a collection of interdisciplinary curriculum developed by a team of faculty across The Ohio State University’s College of Arts and Sciences, including faculty members from the departments of Dance, History, Microbiology, and Philosophy, and a Bexley High School master history teacher.

The curriculum they have designed is intended to achieve several concurrent learning objectives:

1. Help students master course material.

2. Increase student empathy and awareness of the complexities of a pandemic (past or present).

3. Introduce students to an interdisciplinary approach to studying the human impacts of a pandemic (again, past or present).
