copyright for educators
In this course participants will learn one of the critical issues that educators and students face — copyright. The symbol © should not be a stumbling block for educators and students to develop and share learning resources. You just need to understand the basics of the rights and the restrictions of copyrighted materials. More importantly, there is life after copyright — open licenses! In essence, this course is about transitioning from "All Rights Reserved" to "Some Rights Reserved".
