Educational
- G-I members Mike Duncan and Ross Boulanger have developed an educational web site, the " Geotechnical Engineering Photo Album," that serves as a supplement for available text books.
A wide range of topics are illustrated using sequences of photos or diagrams.
Faculty members can use the images to illustrate topics in courses.
Students can use the web site to get a visual feel beyond what textbooks provide. Mike and Ross plan to continually update the
site.
