Thread:Closing Reflection (1)

RE: "Copyright law was expressly introduced to limit the rights of the controllers and distributors of knowledge. Yet, these controllers are successfully turning a “copy” right into a property right. The traditional rights of learning institutions are being taken away. The balance for researchers should be restored. Research and learning must be allowed the broad interpretation that was intended in the original laws."


 * Should we be asking (discussion) questions here rather than telling educators what to think?

Fortunately, in a digital world, Creative Commons provides the legal tools for education institutions to restore the balance by granting permissions and freedom to create new knowledge without restriction."


 * CC licenses still have restrictions, so this statement is somewhat misleading.
