"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."
This was actually posted at the beginning of the assignment for APSU 23 Things. This attribution let me know that this was modified from another individual's Learning 2.0 program, which was based on another author's article and website. It's great that some creators are willing to share their work and allow it to be modified and used for another purpose.
Creative Commons is an invaluable resource. I have used it many times since finding out about it in this class. It saves a lot of time while looking for images that are legally okay to share with proper attribution. I was also thinking about what a really cool project it would be to have the class create a song or video based on the standard they were learning at the time, and have it licensed on Creative Commons as a class. That would give them pride and ownership in their work. I will definitely do this when I have my own class. The students could learn about copyright and Creative Commons while at the same time learning their standard. Awesome!!
