Thing #23 WooHoo!!!

Find an example or attribution that shows the Learning 2.0-23Things blog was based on someone else's work and modified from its original.

Here you go...Learning 2.0 is a discovery learning program created by Helene Blowers and adapted by the California School Library Association and others. Content and style for Learning 2.0 - 23 Things has been borrowed and duplicated with permission, under a Creative Commons License.

Now that you know about Creative Commons licensing, how will you use it in the future as a teacher or school librarian? It is important that all teachers and students understand copyright permissions and usage of digitial text and graphics. With the ease of cut and paste plagerism is an all too often means of writing for our students and teachers. I like the fact that many sites are beginning to realize that by sharing information the possibilities are limitless. We need to educate the differences between c, cc, and pd and make sure works are cited correctly!
