I teach Pedology (325) including field work and the two lab sections, and the pedology component of General Soil Science (301). We have integrated iPads and products from the ISEE project in our teaching. We teach our students to be able to read the landscape and the relationship between soils, landform and landuse. In the process, they become well-informed consumers of soil information. Both our undergraduate and graduate students easily find employment in the environmental sector but also in agronomy or forestry. Soil science proves to be an excellent start for a career in a field of global importance but with local impact.
