Week 2 Assignment: Copyright and Creative Commons/Padlet. Due in 5 hours time. No later than that

For your assignment this week:

1. Please select a topic that will be used in your classroom (or a related work context, if you are not a teacher).
2. Conduct a google search for your topic.
3. Using "Advanced Search", please filter your search or use other resources (see the folder below for a list of other online resources or find your own) to find an image, a text document or website, and/or multimedia artifact (either audio or video) to use as an example for each of the following Creative Licenses categories. You must include a minimum of 10 artifacts on your wall; there must be at least one from 4 of the 5 categories. If you cannot find anything, please let me know early, so that I can help. If after that, there is nothing that fits your topic and the category, let me know and explain this in your blog post.
   1. Attribution
   2. Attribution - ShareAlike (CC-SA often)
   3. Attribution - NoDerivs or NoDerivs-NonCommercial (CC-ND or CC-ND-NC)

   5. Copyrighted materials may be used, but must be linked from the source and copyright information provided. Please be aware that most Youtube videos are copyrighted. This does not mean that they can't be used as a link for educational purposes.
4. Post each resource to your padlet wall with the necessary copyright/attribution information. You will need:
   1. the name of the resource,
   2. the author's name if available,
   3. a direct link to the resource online (keep in mind that a link to flickr.com (for example) is not a direct link to the resource), and
   4. the copyright/attribution license information. 

For your link (in c): I will accept resources with the url displayed or that can be accessed by clicking on the picture or video as being linked to the resource.

To submit your work:

You will create a blog post for this week to embed your copyright padlet project.

Your post will contain the following:

• Use in the classroom or educational setting:
  • Develop a lesson or training IDEA (not a full-blown lesson) for a learning experience that utilizes Padletin the classroom or your work environment.
    • Outline in 2-3 sentences how you intend to use this technology as a support or way to demonstrate learning for students.
    • Write a learning objective using Bloom's taxonomy to describe what you anticipate your outcomes will be. Another link to Bloom's taxonomy and writing objectives(from Kathy Schrock's Guide to Everything). The Differentiator is a neat online site that supports writing objectives as well.
      • For example: The students will assemble 10 images that represent the main perspectives of both the North and South factions during the Civil War.
  • Discuss briefly how you will incorporate copyright into your teaching, creation of multimedia materials, and student creation of artifacts?
• Application:
  • How do the readings from week 1 on design principles for instructional multimedia align:
    • With your lesson idea? With the padlet technology in general?
    • Which principles do you feel you applied when creating your Padlet?
    • Which principles did you intentionally use when designing your lesson idea?
• Reflection:
  • How has your thinking changed this week?
  • What information, facts, processes, or technology stood out in your mind?
  • Were there tensions that you noticed between the content and design principles for multimedia or between two principles that you used?
  • What did you enjoy, or not?
  • How did you grow?

• Your artifact:
  • Embed your padlet into your blogpost by:
    • Clicking the "Share" icon (a box with an arrow) in padlet.
    • Copy the embed code from your padlet into your blog.
    • Either paste the embed code directly into your blog post, click add media then click from url, or click html and then paste in the embed code (depending on the product you are using).
      • With blogger,  click html and paste the code, save and publish.  If you add the url using the link (paperclip thingy), it creates hyperlinked text that can be clicked to get to your padlet. 
      • With wordpress, all you need to do is be on the visual for editing, then paste in the link. (Changed from fall and is MUCH easier). 
      • Other products may require using the html option or url - it depends (and it changes with updates).
    • IF you try and cannot get it to embed, link it. Email me. See if I can help.

You may incorporate these sections into your blog post in any order that makes sense to you. Use the blog roll  links to read and comment on 2 copyright blogs (or more) before Sunday during week 3. You comment a week behind (and you are not required to comment again on week 1).
