GEE 2025 legacy: a substantial footprint

The anniversary of GEE 2025 (2-4 July, Nancy, France) is a reminder that conferences can have an active afterlife. GEE 2025 has left a substantial material record: freely accessible papers, recorded presentations, and slides from invited talks.

Explore the Scopus-listed GEE 2025 proceedings in the ISSMGE online library, where we have recently added an article by Prof. Jenni Case summarizing her inspiring keynote lecture on engineering education in the age of genAI. Her (slightly rephrased) closing words are particularly worth reflecting on:

The scholarship of teaching and learning doesn't require a lab or postgraduate students ... It's something any educator can take up in their own classroom.

Let us prove Prof. Case right and make our geotechnical engineering classrooms laboratories for educational innovation!

We can also watch one of the invited talks in the ISSMGE Virtual University (subjects: education & teaching geotechnics) or explore all the presentations available on the TC306 YouTube channel. Or simply check out photos in the last ISSMGE Bulletin (pp. 49-50)!

A perfect summer pastime for colleagues in the Northern Hemisphere, a refreshing break from teaching for those in the Southern Hemisphere, and an ideal warm-up for the upcoming TC306 meeting for all of us.
