There are many, including my environmental and civil engineering technology students, who do not have decades to commit to developing a working understanding of the Earth and the specific geological and geomorphological contexts they may find themselves working in. Therefore, this textbook is designed to provide a brief introduction to the concepts of geology and geomorphology, with an Ontarian perspective. It serves as a good starting point for individuals who have neither prior experience nor knowledge in geology nor geomorphology. In order to adequately explain concepts that unfold in four dimensions (3 dimensions with time as the fourth), an electronic format is used to leverage enhanced illustrations. These illustrations include traditional 2D figures; however, videos, animations, and interactive figures are also used to help create a deeper understanding.

Short Description: The primary purpose of this text is to provide an open source textbook that can be used in introductory project management courses. The objective is to develop a concise, widely applicable open source textbook that can be used in the for-profit and non-profit sectors. This text covers all aspects of the project management lifecycle. The author has intentionally left out examples from fields of practice like business, engineering and information technology in order to ensure this text has universal applicability.
Long Description: Project management is not just for Project Managers anymore. Organizations of all shapes and sizes continue to transform the ways they innovate and deliver on their promise to continuously improve customer satisfaction levels. When an organization introduces change, they must do it right the first time. Disruption is the new normal. Succeeding in such turbulent times means organizations cannot afford to waste precious resources on failed projects. This has led to a recognition that the tools, techniques and processes associated with project management can help organizations be successful.
