Thing 23

The videos used in the APSU 2.0 - 23 Things are examples that the exercise was based on others' work and modified specifically for this course. Each of these videos were used in part to help reinforce the message the creators of the APSU 2.0 - 23 Things were trying to communicate, but the videos themselves were not created by the creators of the APSU 2.0 - 23 Things. The videos and certain information within the APSU 2.0 - 23 Things were used under the Creative Commons license agreement. This allows for their use, with credit being given to the original creators.

Now that I know more about Creative Commons, I will look for information that has been created under the Creative Commons license agreement. This will alleviate concern about the rightful use of materials in my classroom. In addition, I will be more likely to create material and share it with others now that I know how this can be done. I think Creative Commons is a great solution to an issue that has been plaguing teachers and researchers for quite some time.
