Creative Commons in your school

March 5, 2008 · No Comments




Digital technologies have revolutionised how creative works are made, distributed, and used. The challenge facing our schools is to ensure that we are teaching our students to treat others creative works in a fair and just way – with integrity.

Creative commons allows us to use and build on the many great resources on the web. It enables students to build on others creations and learning in a legal and ethical way.

Some of my favourite creative commons sites are

flickrcc A great photo sharing site for creative commons photos. You can also edit photos from within the site.

Creative Commons Search – A search engine for creative commons resources

archive.org The Internet Archive is building a digital library of Internet sites and other cultural artifacts in digital form. Freely download images, movies, music

Freesound The Freesound Project is a collaborative database of Creative Commons licensed sounds. Freesound focusses only on sound, not songs.
