A key characteristic of the Creative Commons Certification project is a goal to, as much as possible, use openly licensed content and activities within the activities people will do to earn a certification. There is, of course, much material out there to explain, demonstrate, and help people learn about copyright, fair use, the public domain, […]
That photo is not only a favorite t-shirt, I’d like to make it my professional tag line. Well, maybe right after Defender of the Commons: To the people who defend our creative commons – I salute you 🙂@cogdog @mweller @amyburvall @dajbelshaw pic.twitter.com/7Js0ZSwDb1 — Bryan Mathers – @bryanmmathers (@BryanMMathers) May 12, 2016 The collection of videos […]
Our team is actively refining the specifications for the Creative Commons Core Certification and the derivative versions for Libraries, Government, and Education based on discussions our meetings in May in Washington DC. In that meeting we worked from a Draft 1.1 version developed in May 2015 by a Creative Commons team, represented in a spreadsheet […]
This image is from the imagination of Bryan Mathers who releases similar sketched ideas under a Creative Commons license on his Visual Thinkery site. As he describes his work: These visual thoughts are usually a result of a conversation, stumbling across a blog post or someone tweeting some verbiage at me. All these images are […]
Yes, you. That’s who I am talking too. I put out this idea a few weeks ago asking people to do an imagination exercise to tell us first what place a Creative Commons Certification might have for them, and how they might envision such a thing working. To me, it’s an interesting approach in this […]
Like I’ve done in the past, to some degree of success, I am asking for people to help out on a project with a video response to questions related to my new project with Creative Commons, helping to design/build a system, process for offering a “certification” in Creative Commons. Yes, I put that in quotes, […]
One of the best aspects about my current project working on a Creative Commons Certification is that the timeline for the project extends to September 2017… in other places, I’d be in some fats track to build something or pick a technology, and I’d be in some frantic grasping at PersonalizedAPIBlockchainBedgeBots. Soon, very soon, I […]
The Creative Commons Certification project will be shared at the 13th Annual Open Education Conference November 2–4, 2016 in Richmond, VA. This presentation by Paul Stacey and Alan Levine plays a bit at the “MOOC” acronym with it’s title In the MOOD: Building the Creative Commons Certification: Deeply woven into successful open education and pedagogy […]
This is a summary of my notes made in preparation for the May 2016 project meeting. Part of our pre-work for the first project meeting (held May 11-13, 2016 in Washington DC) we were asked to review a number of existing certification programs to find elements we would want to “remix” into the Creative Commons […]
I’m doing some prep work for next week’s Washington D.C. meeting (first one) for the Creative Commons Certification project I am now working on, where we are tasked at looking at a range of existing certifications, train the trainer programs to “remix” the best features into a possible vision for what we hope to build.
