About the Class

Last couple of years has seen many Internet users allow other to use their Pictures and Music. This has helped Educators, Students and Non-profits to enhance their Web-sites, Papers, Presentations, Videos etc. without worrying about infringing on others Copyright Laws. This form of sharing is facilitated by Creative Commons (CC)- an organization that has drafted a set of Licenses. These licenses describe just how and under what conditions the Resources can be used by others.

For example if you see the text BY next to a picture, you can use it as long as you attribute the Creator of the Piece. If I see a NC next to a picture, I can use it in my Presentations as long as I am not deriving any Commercial Benefit from it.

In this 45 minutes tutorial and discussion we will cover:

  • 1. Where to find Music and Pictures licensed under CC?
  • 2. How to read the various Licenses?
  • 3. How to use these Resources and how to cite/attribute the Original Creator?
  • 4. What else to keep in mind while using CC Resources?
  • 5. Examples of CC usage

Language of instruction:

Keywords: music, creative, web images, educator, creative common licensed music, media
