Agenda

What is the CC BY requirement in the TAACCCT grant?

“To ensure that the Federal investment of these funds has as broad an impact as possible and to encourage innovation in the development of new learning materials, as a condition of the receipt of a TAACCCT grant, the grantee will be required to license to the public all work created with the support of the grant under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 (CC BY) license.”

“The purpose of the CC BY licensing requirement is to ensure that materials developed with funds provided by these grants result in Work that can be freely reused and improved by others.”

Only work that is developed by the grantee with the grant funds.

Applies to:

Pre-existing copyrighted materials licensed to, or purchased by the grantee from third parties, including modifications of such materials.

Works created without grant funds.

Does not apply to:

“This license allows subsequent users to copy, distribute, transmit and adapt the copyrighted Work and requires such users to attribute the Work in the manner specified by the grantee. Notice of the license shall be affixed to the Work. For general information on CC BY, please visithttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0.”

Why?

CC BY is a free copyright license

http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0

Created by a nonprofit

organization(Creative

that creates other free legal tools

creativecommons.org

We make sharing content easy, legal,

and scalable.

What do we do?

Traditional © designed for old

distribution models

The problem:

Cost of “Copy”

For one 250 page book:• Copy by hand - $1,000• Copy by print on demand - $4.90• Copy by computer - $0.00084

Cost of “Distribute”For one 250 page book:• Distribute by mail - $5.20

• print-on-demand (2000+ copies)• Distribute by internet - $0.00072

CC BY: David Wiley, BYU

Copy and distribute are (almost) “free”

This changes everything

Technically easy but legally not so easy.

Free © licenses that creators can

attach to their works

Agenda

“OER are teaching, learning, and research resources that reside in the public domain or have been released under an intellectual property license that permits their free use and re-purposing by others.”

5Rs: The Powerful Rights of OER

With $2 billion over 4 years, TAACCCT is the largest OER* initiative in the world.

*thanks to CC BY license requirement

Why did we do this?

U.S. DOL:

“We did this because open licensing increases the impact of our investment and helps us to be more strategic with our future investments.”

“From a public policy perspective, the Department is a better steward of public funds by giving the public access to those things created using public funds, and ensuring that these products have as wide spread a use as possible.”

“TAACCCT is a really big investment. But we expect that OER will allow the impact to be even greater than just the 800 colleges with new curricula and equipment that we directly funded.”

What does this mean for me practically speaking?

But..

I can build on R1 TAACCCT OER. I save $ b/c I share development

costs. I save time and effort. I can improve my resource with

others.

Thanks to CC BY:

Costs are lower for students. I am an example of open policy. New partnerships and market

opportunities innovation Local, regional, international

Thanks to CC BY:

Full Potential Impact1. Authoring new OER

– Attaching a CC BY license– Examples

2. Use existing OER in your development– Sourcing OER– Reusing, revising, remixing OER

3. Sharing & distributing OER publicly– Repositories for storage, curation, and distribution

4. Leveraging OER through open pedagogies

5. Promoting and marketing to students

6. Leveraging OER by establishing downstream local, regional, national, and international partners
