We have created (and now updated in edition 2) our textbook for Geomorphology. Bierman and Montgomery, Key Concepts in Geomorphology. It has been extensively vetted by the community, includes all new, pedagogically-focused art work, and is linked to freely accessible collections of community-authored electronic resources. Community vetting, resource creation, and impact assessment were supported by the National Science Foundation. You can order the book or for faculty who are teaching geomorphology, request a desk copy for evaluation by clicking here. An e-book is available too. Click here to order your e-copy.

• There are 16 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. Edition 2 was shaped by 60 pages of constructive comments from faculty and students.
• A poster presented at 2013 GSA describes how we created Key Concepts in Geomorphology. You can download a PDF file of the poster by clicking here. A poster presented at 2019 GSA describes how we revised Key Concepts in Geomorphology. You can download a PDF file of the poster by clicking here.
• 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.
• The National Science Foundation's Course, Curriculum, and Laboratory Improvement program is funding community involvement in this project. You can download our proposal.
• Review workshops during which experts contributed electronic resources to Key Concepts in Geomorphology. See the schedule of workshops at GSA, EGU, AGU, and AAG.
• W. H. Freeman (now part of Macmillan) is publishing the Edition 2 in full color. They have dedicated significant resources to the art and photography program.You can order the book or request a desk copy for evaluation by clicking here.
