Creative Commons Explained

On my previous post about Creative Commons (please read below) I talked about imagery, video, and music available with permission for reuse and modification for students or anyone.  I have recently found this great video explaining what Creative Commons is as well as what each of the Creative Commons symbols mean that you will see with the media.

For instance:

This license is the most restrictive of our six main licenses, only allowing others to download your works and share them with others as long as they credit you, but they can’t change them in any way or use them commercially. (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/)

It is New Zealand's explanation, however will still apply to the US.


Here is another video from Creative Commons - A Shared Culture
