Cheers Wayne *About #OCL4ED* Sponsored by UNESCO, the course materials were developed as a collaborative project by volunteers from the OER Foundation<http://wikieducator.org/OERF:Home>, WikiEducator <http://wikieducator.org/Main_Page>, the OpenCourseWare Consortium <http://www.ocwconsortium.org/> and Creative Commons<http://creativecommons.org/>. The course will provide prerequisite knowledge required by educators to legally remix open education materials and help institutions to take informed decisions about open content licenses. We encourage all BOTs to consider adopting open content intellectual property policies at their schools and this workshop will provide you with the information you need to consider this important decision. The Open Content Licensing for Educators workshop is scheduled for 21 - 25 March 2011 and will be presented asynchronously. Participants will need approximately 1 hour per day which they can allocate according to their schedules. The workshop is free and we welcome participation from all educators world wide.
