Creative Commons licensing varies in level of freedom you have to use, remix, & share. #txeduchat via @cablegreen https://t.co/jCvbCFNzxF

aaron_hogan Jul 17 @ 9:44 PM EDT

A6 Creative Commons Licensing marks resources as OK to share/modify. It's key for successful adaptation of #GoOpen resources #txeduchat

Q6: Licenses creators give on how users can utilize creations. The issue: there are several types of CC licenses. #txeduchat

According to @cablegreen YOU CAN SAVE $$ but don't forget to give it to the teachers who create OER #txeduchat https://t.co/lsaM2gtGlX

@MrsKemper @Tom_Kilgore @michaelsmills It's kind of ironic that Ts have to buy a resource on free OER. :-) #txeduchat

A7: In my opinion OER use will grow steadily due to ease that institutions can share/modify/personalize & need to tighten budgets #txeduchat

@Route22Edu @MrsKemper @michaelsmills The guidelines put out in DOE website cover much on how districts can #goopen as well #txeduchat
