5. What are OER?
“OER are teaching, learning, and research
resources that reside in the public domain or have
been released under an intellectual property license
that permits their free use and re-purposing by
others.”

6. What are OER?

of educational materials that are in the public
domain or introduced with an open license. The
nature of these open materials means that anyone
can legally and freely copy, use, adapt and re-share
them.”

7. Reusability Paradox
The more context
a learning object
has, the more (and
the more easily) a
learner can learn
from it.
To make learning
objects maximally
reusable, learning
objects should
contain as little
context as possible.

effectiveness and potential for
reuse are completely at odds
with one another, unless the
end user is permitted to edit
the learning object.”

33. Reading an Open Textbook
HTML – Universal, reading at length on web - meh
PDF – Print on Demand, cumbersome in eReader
ePub – standard still far from standard. Accessibility

step 2 is to simply receive the license
there are 6 CC licenses that reflect a spectrum of rights
for the photos I share on Flickr, I use the Attribution only license, which means that anyone can download, copy, distribute, remix, tweak, and build upon them, even commercially, as long as they give me credit
of course the 3 layer approach of CC licenses and CC0 Public Domain Dedication helps communicate rights
humans can understand a simple deed with primary rights and responsibilities described with those pervasive icons you see
lawyers we have a legally enforceable legal code
machine readable metadata that can be understood by search engines so you can filter for content based on the CC licenses
there are six CC licenses that offer a spectrum of rights
the most recognized and widely used license for Open Access is CC BY
allows for unconditional reuse of the licensed material except for requirement that author is credited
public domain tools - CC0 public domain dedication is a waiver of copyright and related rights thus placing the content into the public domain
