Re: [WikiEducator] Fwd: You Tube applications and OER use?
Hi All, Assuming that this hasn't already been done Why not contact the founder of the Khan Academy directly, and ask if an additional license (free of the NC restriction) can be granted to the WikiEducator community? Of course - that's the world - but the emphasis in our community really, is about educators using, remixing and re-using educational resources - in line with the stated mission of the Khan Academy below. - Randy On Sat, Aug 4, 2012 at 7:45 PM, Wayne Mackintosh mackintosh.wa...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Valerie and Jim, You will find further information on the components of a definition for OER definition here http://wikieducator.org/Educators_care/Defining_OER .

Re: [WikiEducator] Fwd: You Tube applications and OER use?
Maybe I can help with this question by providing facts that I have gathered. What is missing in my understanding is, I don't understand the exact criteria for OERs. Namely, do the resources have to be in the public domain to be considered an OER or is a creative commons copyright sufficient? The Kahn Academy is not pubic domain, but they allow free use of their materials according to Cc BY-NC-SA 3.0. This video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6kwIBI3j98feature=plcp says that they want people to use their resources and tools in any way that they see fit. At their website they have the logo for the creative commons copyright CC-BY-NC-SA http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/us/ Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 United States (CC BY-NC-SA 3.0) http://screencast.com/t/KeJVjIe9BZ screenshot of the cc by-nc-sa 3.0 logo from the web page. About The Khan Academy It is our mission to provide a world-class education to anyone, anywhere. With this in mind, we want to share our content with whoever may find it useful.
