Hi Phil,
As you say, we do have brilliant Learning4Content tutorials 1-10 which teach how to use wiki technology, plus a few more on other important subjects such as the use of Kaltura (video editing) for instance, and how to create a learning resource and others etc that are not taught in the bottom line course but are available for self learning. Awareness of copyright options is something that is important to our work in OER development and while there is information, there is no tutorial that teaches us the meaning of what each license actually means. Copyrights are a large topic and it is important to know how to interpret and apply them correctly in your OER work.

The topic of copyrights can be included on one of them, along with a few related topics, such as various ways to collaborate, and when to leave someone's work untouched. Unlike the introductory tutorials, which are excellent as they are, these proposed secondary tutorials may have fewer facilitators, and those facilitators be responsible for topics that particularly interest them.

Some information on WE can be found here, but I think it is time that we formally developed a tutorial that works to educate about options.
