Open content licensing for educators/2012 poll

Open content licensing for educators is a free online workshop designed for educators who want to learn more about open education resources, copyright, and Creative Commons licenses.

''The workshop will be presented online asynchronously. You will need approximately one hour each day for the duration of the workshop.''

''The course materials were developed as a collaborative project by volunteers from the OER Foundation, WikiEducator, the OpenCourseWare Consortium and Creative Commons, with funding support from UNESCO. The course will provide prerequisite knowledge required by educators to legally remix open education materials and help institutions to take informed decisions about open content licenses.''

This offering of the workshop is sponsored by Ako Aotearoa, a strategic partner member of the OER Foundation.
