We are creating a new, different, and up-to-date textbook for Geomorphology. Bierman and Montgomery, Key Concepts in Geomorphology, is being extensively vetted by the community, includes all new, pedagogically- focussed art work, and is linked to freely accessible collections of community-authored electronic resources and photographs. Community vetting, resource creation, and impact assessment are supported by the National Science Foundation.

• There will be 14 chapters in Key Concepts in Geomorphology. The final chapter list resulted from the work of 10 geomorphologists meeting at NSF in April 2008 and input from 60 geomorphologists at the Cutting Edge, Teaching Geomorphology workshop in July 2008.
• Vignettes are electronic supplements - short, illustrated descriptions and place-based examples that allow instructors to customize their class' approach to learning. The first 27 were created by participants at the Cutting Edge, Teaching Geomorphology workshop in July 2008.
• Find an image for teaching Geomorphology from the collection of images we have assembled with NSF support. You can contribute your favorite Geomorphology images to this new archive.
• Submitting a Vignette is a great way to contribute to this community resource and to share what you know from your own geomorphic research. Vignettes are peer-reviewed and hosted by Carleton College's Science Education Resource Center.
• The National Science Foundation's Course, Curriculum, and Laboratory Improvement program is funding community involvement in this project. You can download our proposal.
• Join us for a workshop during which you can contribute electronic resources to Key Concepts in Geomorphology. See the schedule of workshops at GSA, EGU, AGU, and AAG. More to come.
• W. H. Freeman will be publishing the new textbook in full color. They have dedicated significant resources to the art and photography program.
