The example that I found was from the PLCMC Learning 2.0
website http://plcmcl2-about.blogspot.com/. It was built to encourage staff to experiment
with technologies that might be unknown to that staff. Helene Blowers, the
technology director from PLCMC designed the program and based it off of an
article http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0FWE/is_2_10/ai_n16133338/
written by Stephen Abram’s. The site
author has a Creative Commons license that allows for sharing as long as the
user attributes the work to the original author. This cannot be used for profit
and work cannot altered without the consent of the author.
Creative Commons is a new thing for me and the knowledge
gained by it has helped me pay closer attention to mistakes made by unknowing
copycats. I will teach this in my English classes at the beginning of the year
to expose my students to ethics on the Internet. As I post things to the web
(i.e. original lesson plans, YouTube videos and educational activities) I will
take the time to attach a Creative Commons attribution tag on my work.
