Visual resources are images, virtual field trips, online tools, or any other digital visualization format that can be used as a resource for geoscience instructors. These resources are meant to be used within and augment current curriculum. These resources are not full courses or teaching activities. They are singular objects that can help students visualize geologic concepts, formations, or far away locations.
