13. 1. IP, Copyright and Licensing
• IP & copyright policy provides access to materials
directly paid for by public funds, public institutions,
works created by staff at public institutions, and
educational materials produced by government
departments and agencies.
• Policy makes it widely accessible for the public good
under an open licence. Amongst other benefits, this
helps eliminate unnecessary duplication of public
spending.
• Sharing should be the default expectation, not the
exception.
• Student work?

14. TAACCCT
Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College & Career Training

• $2 billion over 4 years
• All courseware openly licensed (CC BY)
http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/38818

15. CC BY Requirements – specific language
•
All successful applicants must allow broad access for others to use and
enhance project products and offerings, including authorizing for-profit
derivative uses of the courses and associated learning materials by
licensing newly developed materials produced with grant funds with a
Creative Commons Attribution License (CC BY).
•
This license allows subsequent users to copy, distribute, transmit and
adapt the copyrighted work and requires such users to attribute the
work in the manner specified by the Grantee.
•
The purpose of the CCBY licensing requirement is to ensure that
materials developed with funds provided by these grants result in Work
that can be freely reused and improved by others.

16. CC BY Requirements – specific language
•
Work that must be licensed under the CC BY includes both new content
created with the grant funds and modifications made to pre-existing,
grantee-owned content using grant funds.
•
Only work that is developed by the grantee with the grant funds is required
to be licensed under the CC BY license. Pre-existing copyrighted materials
licensed to, or purchased by the grantee from third parties, including
modifications of such materials, remain subject to the intellectual property
rights the grantee receives under the terms of the particular license or
purchase. In addition, works created by the grantee without grant funds do
not fall under the CC BY license requirement.
•
Requirements for open file formats, Open Source Software

17. 2. Curriculum Design/Materials Development
• Material will first be sourced from open content.
• Adopt, adapt, create.
• Support education institutions (individually or collectively)
and organizations to invest resources in the production
and sharing of high quality educational resources and
ongoing improvement and updating of curricula and
teaching materials.
• Eliminate unnecessary duplication of effort by building on
what already exists elsewhere, take advantage of pooled
alternative resources, remove costs of copyright
negotiation and clearance, and - over time - engage open
communities of practice in ongoing quality improvement
and quality assurance

18. Open Textbooks

20. 3. Human Resource Policy
• Incorporate the development of OER in job
descriptions.
• OER produced by faculty members should count
towards career advancement.
• OER production and publishing would be recognized
and given similar credit as peer-reviewed publications
• Universities should allow time allocation for faculty to
produce OER materials.
• Staff involved in OER production would be eligible to
receive OER grants (when available).

21. 4. File Formats
• Release content in formats best suited for
interoperability and re-use and are searchable and
indexable by search engines
• Content should be made available in a file format that
allows anyone to natively and directly edit the
content. Content may be made available in multiple
formats, but at least one of these formats must be
openly editable by providing the original file format
used to create the content. The type of file format
varies by type of media.
• All new source code developed or created with
TAACCCT grant funds will be released under an
open license acceptable to either the Free Software
Foundation and/or the Open Source Initiative.

22. • Foster the creation, adoption, and implementation of
open policies that advance the public good.
• Do this by supporting advocates, organizations,
policymakers, and connecting policy opportunities
with those who can provide assistance.
