Creative Commons Open Licenses - What Is It All About? CREATIVE COMMONS OPEN LICENSES - WHAT IS IT ALL ABOUT? Introductory presentation by Paul G. West Creative Commons South African Chapter Lead STATING THE UNNECESSARY This workshop is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age or religion. We do not tolerate harassment of participants or facilitators in any form. Sexual language and imagery is not appropriate, including in any online platform that may be used. AND IT IS IMPORTANT TO ADD THAT . • Nothing in this workshop should be construed as legal advice! • We will be talking about an interesting range of topics that touch on copyright, fair use and open licensing. • We will together learn more about copyright, open licensing and open practices in various communities. • Upon completion, you should feel a little more comfortable sharing facts about copyright and open licensing and good open practices. • I am NOT a lawyer – I am a supporter of Open Educational Resources (OER) and Creative Commons (CC) open licenses. THE STORY DOES NOT START IN 2002 UNESCO Forum on the Impact of Open Courseware for Higher Education in Developing Countries https://unesdoc.unesco.org/ark:/48223/pf0000181682 ORIGINS OF OER CREATION OF A MOVEMENT Larry Lessig and others founded the Creative Commons 2001 Charles M. Vest speaks of a meta-university 2007 a transcendent, accessible, empowering, dynamic, communally constructed framework of open materials and platforms on which much of higher education worldwide can be constructed David Wiley coined the term “open content” or enhanced 1998 Conference: Towards an OER university A UNESCO forum coined the term "Open Educational 2011 Resources" OER Foundation 2002 Wayne Hodgins coined the term “learning object” MIT announced its OpenCourseWare initiative Cape Town Declaration on OER signed 2012 Paris OER Declaration 1994 2001 2007 2012 OER Highlights: 1994 to 2012 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 W&F Hewlett Foundation funded the creation of the OER Movement THE MOTIVATION FOR A CREATIVE COMMONS • Copyright laws are vested in a world of print materials – expensive to reproduce and move around the world • The Internet has reduced the cost of reproducing and moving digital resources to almost zero • We can now share on an unprecedented scale • The possibilities of sharing resources in a digital world are in tension or almost opposition with the restrictions in most countries’ copyright laws • The establishment of Creative Commons is a direct response to the need to share resources effectively using modern technology such as the Internet and digital devices in spite of existing regulations. THE TRIGGER FOR A CREATIVE COMMONS • “Mickey Mouse Protection Act” – because the copyright limitation on certain Disney characters were about to move to the public domain • Actually called the Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act (CTEA) • To extend from 50 to 70 years past the death of the creator of a resource – when a resource may transfer to the public domain • Laurence Lessig, a Stanford Law professor took on a case known as Eldred v. Ashcroft which went to the U.S. Supreme Court and lost THE ESTABLISHMENT OF CREATIVE COMMONS • The loss of the Eldred v. Ashcroft case inspired Lawrence Lessig to establish Creative Commons to respond to a growing need to enable the creation, remixing and sharing of content • Created as a non-profit in 2001, Creative Commons issued its first licenses in 2002 • A set of free, public licenses that would allow creators to share their resources such as books, teaching and learning resources and most other works on more flexible terms than the default “all rights reserved” • Originally motivated by the situation in the USA, the licenses are used world-wide CREATIVE COMMONS THE ORGANISATION • Creative Commons has been registered as a non-profit organisation in the USA since 2001 • Creative Commons staff are based around the world • Creative Commons enables resources to be used by millions of people simultaneously, to be copied, shared, and remixed. Creative Commons help us to use the potential of the internet CREATIVE COMMONS LICENSES • For those who wish to share knowledge • Use by • Metropolitan Museum of Art • Europeana • Commonwealth of Learning • UNESCO • World Bank • Siyavula Open Textbooks • There are six open licenses that creators and authors may select from to share their resources CREATIVE COMMONS AT THE FRONT OF A MOVEMENT • The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation sponsored the creation of the OER Movement (Cathy Casserly and Mike Smith) • Creative Commons has supported the global movement toward being open for all people, including academics, musicians, artists, film makers, etc. • The movement includes activists (librarians!), policymakers, researchers and creators • The Creative Commons Global Network (CCGN) includes activists and legal experts from around the world • Other organisations in the movement include: Wikipedians, Mozillians, WikiEducators WHAT CREATIVE COMMONS IS ACCOMPLISHING • In 15 years Creative Commons licenses have been attached to over 1.6 Billion works (resources) on 9 million websites • The focus continues to be on openness, collaboration, and shared human creativity to provide a common legal basis for all people working toward opening up access to knowledge • Anyone may simply use the Creative Commons license selector to find the most appropriate license, and • May join the Creative Commons Global Network and a national Chapter THE INTERNET HAS MADE GLOBAL DISTRIBUTION AND SHARING OF COPYRIGHTABLE WORKS POSSIBLE WITH THE CLICK OF A BUTTON OPEN EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES THE 5RS • Retain - make, own, and control a copy of the resource • Revise - edit, adapt, and modify your copy of the resource • Remix - combine your original or revised copy of the resource with other existing material to create something new • Reuse - use your original, revised, or remixed copy of the resource publicly • Redistribute - share copies of your original, revised, or remixed copy of the resource with others http://opencontent.org/definition/ 2019 RECOMMENDATION ON OER The Recommendation outlines five Areas of Action: • Building the capacity of stakeholders to create, access, re-use, adapt and redistribute OER • Developing supportive policy for OER • Encouraging inclusive and equitable quality OER • Nurturing the creation of sustainability models for OER • Promoting and reinforcing international cooperation in OER https://opencontent.org/blog/archives/6397 https://en.unesco.org/themes/building-knowledge-societies/oer/recommendation IMPACT OF TECHNICAL CHOICES THE ALMS FRAMEWORK • Access to Editing Tools – Need a R20k app? • Level of Expertise Required – need a 6–month course? • Meaningfully Editable – a scanned graphic? • Self-Sourced – the usual open formats? Make technical choices that enable the greatest number of people possible to engage in the 5R activities THE CREATIVE COMMONS LICENSE CHOOSER https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work https://chooser-beta.creativecommons.org THREE-LAYER DESIGN • Legal Code – Lawyer Readable – the full contract • Commons Deed – Human readable – simple explanation • Machine readable - CC Rights Expression Language (CC REL) for computer programs OVERVIEW OF THE LICENSES CC-Zero Free CC-BY cultural works CC-BY-SA Special license CC-BY-NC Special license CC-BY-NC-SA Special license THE FOUR LICENSE ELEMENTS BY - By Attribution – attribute the creator of the work SA - Share Alike – share your new work under the same license NC – Non-Commercial – not to be used for commercial gain (profit) ND – No Derivatives – use the work as-is if you share it THE PUBLIC DOMAIN • Protection provided by copyright does not last forever – life of creator plus 50/70/more years • After the set term, the copyright expires and the work enters the public domain for everyone to copy, adapt, and share • Applicable law is the country in which the work is being used • There are certain types of works that fall outside the scope of copyright • CC-0 license https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public-domain-equivalent_license THE PUBLIC DOMAIN • There are certain types of works that fall outside the scope of copyright • E.g.

Open licenses, such as those developed by our longtime grantee Creative Commons, protect authors’ rights while giving explicit permission to others to freely use, distribute, and build upon their work. The benefits of open licensing are clear: open licensing increases the chances that good ideas will get a hearing, that others will be able to do something with them, and ultimately that they will have their greatest impact.

  • Translate's Localization Guide
    Translate’s Localization Guide Release 0.9.0 Translate Jun 26, 2020 Contents 1 Localisation Guide 1 2 Glossary 191 3 Language Information 195 i ii CHAPTER 1 Localisation Guide The general aim of this document is not to replace other well written works but to draw them together. So for instance the section on projects contains information that should help you get started and point you to the documents that are often hard to find. The section of translation should provide a general enough overview of common mistakes and pitfalls. We have found the localisation community very fragmented and hope that through this document we can bring people together and unify information that is out there but in many many different places. The one section that we feel is unique is the guide to developers – they make assumptions about localisation without fully understanding the implications, we complain but honestly there is not one place that can help give a developer and overview of what is needed from them, we hope that the developer section goes a long way to solving that issue. 1.1 Purpose The purpose of this document is to provide one reference for localisers. You will find lots of information on localising and packaging on the web but not a single resource that can guide you. Most of the information is also domain specific ie it addresses KDE, Mozilla, etc. We hope that this is more general. This document also goes beyond the technical aspects of localisation which seems to be the domain of other lo- calisation documents.

  • Linux Online Virtual Environments in Teaching Operating Systems
    Linux Online Virtual Environments in Teaching Operating Systems Olena Holovnia[0000-0003-0095-7585] Zhytomyr Polytechnic State University, 103, Chudnivska str., Zhytomyr, 10005, Ukraine [email protected] Abstract. The article provides an overview of Linux ready-made online environments based on various virtualization technologies. Linux ready-made online virtual environments are systematized, the advantages and disadvantages of considering groups of online virtual environments are listed. The work also gives the comparison of standalone online Unix/Linux terminals in terms of their possible use for a course in operating systems. The author analyzes the experience of teaching a Linux operating system to students of different specializations, and in particular, discusses the virtualization tools used, including Linux online environments (Amazon EC2, Cloud 9, a virtual machine for NDG Linux Essentials course). The study states the need for developing an individually designed system to provide Linux online virtual environments and elaborates the requirements to this system. The work also discusses potential challenges which the developers of Linux online virtual environments for teaching operating systems may face, including the problem of finding a balance between availability and stability of virtual environments on the one hand and the realism of students’ learning experience on the other hand. Keywords: virtualization, Linux, operating systems. 1 Introduction A course in operating systems (OS) usually includes practical assignments on Unix- like operating systems (particularly, Linux). However, at the same time, university lab computers, students’ laptops and home desktop computers mostly come with Windows installation. That is one important reason why different virtualization technologies are often used for a course in operating systems.

  • Finding Images for Manipulation
    D003x.1: Applications of Linear Algebra, Part 1 Davidson College Library Finding Images for Manipulation Finding an image to use for your image manipulation project sounds easy, right? It can be, but you have to keep in mind that copyright laws restrict what you can use. Many of the images you’ll find in Google Images are protected by copyright. This guide is designed to help you find images you can use for your image manipulation project. Why Can’t I Just Use Any Image I Want? So, How Do I Find Images I Can Use? What If The Image I Want To Use Is Protected By Copyright? How Do I Give Credit? What Resources Can I Use To Find Images? Why Can’t I Just Use Any Image I Want? In the United States, most things created today have automatic copyright protection. This means that many of the images you find online cannot be used without permission from the owner. A good rule of thumb when searching for images is to assume that anything you find is copyrighted, unless it expressly says it is not. So, How Do I Find Images I Can Use? Although many images are protected by copyright, not all of them are. In addition, some copyrighted works have licenses that let you use them. When you find an image you like, look for information about the image that will tell you if you can use it for your manipulation project. Two types of images to look for are: Public Domain Images Images with a Creative Commons License Public Domain Images Works with an expired copyright are in the public domain, which means you can use them without permission from the creator.

  • Creative Commons Helping Patrons and Students Find and License Online Content
    CREATIVE COMMONS HELPING PATRONS AND STUDENTS FIND AND LICENSE ONLINE CONTENT KYLA HUNT: All right. So, hello everybody and welcome to Creative Commons Helping Patrons and Students Find and License Online Content. Just a couple of things about today's presentation. So, both Liz and I are going to be doing the presentations and we'll introduce ourselves in a second and then we'll be taking a couple of breaks to see if there are any questions. So, while you have questions, make sure you type them in, because I definitely don’t want you to forget what questions you have, because I can never hold on to the questions. So, my name is Kyla Hunt. I'm the Library Management Consultant here at the Texas State Library. So, I oversee the small library management training program. LIZ PHILIPPI: Hi, I'm Liz Philippi and I'm the School Program Coordinator here. So, I work with the TexQuest resources that are provided for K12 students and currently still working on finalizing the new Texas School Library Program standards. KYLA HUNT: Okay. So, I always like to start out by talking about Creative Commons by really talking about what it is, because I think that when people hear the term, Creative Commons, there can be a lot of misconception. People think it's the same thing as public domain or people think that it means that there isn't any copyright on something anymore and those are a lot of misconceptions that I just like to clear up from the get go.
