This course is the first of a three-part series of courses designed to increase knowledge about Earth surface processes for both traditional K-12 teachers and alternative educators. It is focused on soils, streams and slopes and the processes that impact human lives. In this course, knowledge about the curriculum content will be increased through a series of lectures and quizzes. This course is open-access; it is available to all at no cost. Participants can earn a digital badge and Montana Office of Public Instruction (OPI) credits by completing all three courses in the series.

This course is an online, asynchronous course delivered via ATO webpage using TechSmith recordings and quizzes. The course will be open and freely available after the initial opening date.
