Thing #23: Creative Commons

There are many references that make it clear that APSU 23 Things is based on another work. Some examples of those references are:

1. The note after Thing 23: *Note: This project is loosely based upon the website 43Things (which allows you to set and track personal goals) and the Stephen Abram article titled 43 Things I (or You) might want to do this year (Information Outlook - Feb 2006).

2. The note in the "About Learning 2.0" section: Learning 2.0 - 23 Things for Teachers is based on Learning 2.0 - 23 Things. That program is based on the Learning 2.0 program that was designed by Helene Blowers, Technology Director at the Charlotte Mecklenburg County Public Library system, with the support and assistance of several staff. Helene's program was loosely based upon Stephen Abram's article, 43 Things I (or You) might want to do this year (Information Outlook - Feb 2006) and the website 43Things.

Until reviewing the resources about Creative Commons, I had no idea it was so complex. I am so glad I had the opportunity to review them and I feel so much better equipped to teach students how important this is. Teaching by example is definitely the first step. Secondly, these are such great resources to help teach students about this too by incorporating them into my curriculum as well.
