Hi Bev, Thank you for expressing your interest. It may take awhile to get this put together, but I like what you are saying about how the results could be very useful for high school students such as those in your class. By the way, Meeker must be a really great place for going to local field sites, if time and budgets allow, for learning geology from actual settings. --Ralph Ralph Dawes Earth Sciences Wenatchee Valley College 1300 Fifth Street Wenatchee, WA 98801 (509) 682-6754 [log in to unmask] From: Bev DeVore-Wedding [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Monday, November 15, 2010 10:11 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Creating a Geology 101 Digital Textbook as an Open Educational Resource As a high school teacher, I too would be interested. Our Physical Geology course is for upper level students who have already had a basic earth science course. I might not use all of it but it would be a great resource!
