Most of us know that once a piece of work has been created it is immediately protected by Copyright. Other works can also be in the Public Domain if the copyright owner surrenders their right to the material, which is the general concept of Creative Commons, but again this often comes with conditions that students should be made aware of. Now, lets investigate the grey area of education purposes. US Copyright Law US Fair Use Advice

Free and Open Source Authoring Tools for e-Learning As an e-Learning consultant I was always a fan of open source software. Why? The answer is simple. Because I could use them as I wish, for whatever I wish, without long-term commitments and with the extra bonus of a community of professionals that use, extend and support them. In this post I am not going to talk about open source learning management systems such as eFront[1] but rather dedicated open source “authoring tools”.

Recognizing licensed work It is possible to search for CC-licensed work in a variety of ways, but sometimes, you just want to be able to recognize a CC-licensed work when you see it while you're out and about on the internet. There are a few usual places where you are likely to spot the CC license icon or text on a website or blog. For example, the footer is quite common... And sometimes the sidebar... Sometimes the CC icon is missing, but there is text that says "license"... These icons are usually links, so if you cannot tell by looking which license the creator is using, you can click on the icon to get to the license itself.
