This resource, Rock Deformation and Geological Structures, was originally created by John Cole and Richard Batchelor (University of St Andrews), with help from Gordon Taylor (University of Luton), for the UK Earth Science Courseware Consortium (UKESCC) using Macromedia Authorware (now Adobe). The UKESCC was founded and managed by Bill Sowerbutts at the University of Manchester, and was funded (1992-1995) by HEFCE’s Teaching and Learning Technology Programme (TLTP - http://www.hefce.ac.uk/Learning/tinits/TLTP). Bill Sowerbutts continued to update the courseware until 2003 (http://www.ukescc.co.uk).

This Xerte-based version has been developed at the University of Liverpool by  Peter Williams under the direction of Alan Boyle, and is released as an open educational resource through the 'C-change in GEES' project of the GEES Subject Centre with permission of UKESCC and the original authors.  The C-change in GEES project was funded by HEFCE as part of the JISC/HE Academy UKOER programme.  All our items are tagged as UKOER and GEESOER.
