Here is a good paper on why it is important for students to be the
content developers. Should we have the students work through the L4C
workshops and have a similar course to help educators to facilitate
the creation of student generated content?

Hi Peter,
Not too mention the educational value of community service. I have
children in both elementary and high school here in BC and at both
levels there are community service hours built into the curriculum.
Linking student-generated content with community service is a great way
to combine
Hi Peter,
I totally agree. I will be encouraging grade 11 and 12 high school students
at Ort Gutman http://www.wikieducator.org/Ort_Gutman_High_School to be
adding content on WE. I hope other WE members can join in and give a hand.
Thank you.

Yeah Leigh, I don't get either :-(
I would love to hear the rationales from these leading OER advocates who
publish works on the topic of OER under a ND license.
Over the last year I have received two invitations to publish research
articles/chapters in special editions dealing with the topic

That would explain the ND - they don't want a (more usable) HTML

If I was a betting man -- you'd have my bet :-).
Hmm, its a big problem my end, because if and when some of my colleagues see
the use of this and other restrictive licenses, all they see is that its
Creative Commons and think that equates to OER... I am sensing a rise in the
use of restrictions as the 2nd wave of OER comes on board without fully
Hi Leigh,
That's a real challenge -- but surmountable through good education and
advice to help folk take an informed decision.
By setting a leading example and remaining true to our values -- we'll

It's definitely more radical than it needs to be, and I'd be
comfortable with toning it down a bit - Leigh, why don't you start

Hi Leigh,
That's a good point -- I do agree that paragraph is somewhat radical,
particularly to the uninformed and the document needs to be refined. As Erik
suggests let's get involved on the discussions to refine this paragraph over at
