Copyright for Educators

AUSTRALIA part of the Creative Commons international initiative

Aims to make creative material more useable by providing free licences that creators can use to give certain permissions in advance
AUSTRALIA part of the Creative Commons international initiative CRICOS No. 00213J

CC is designed to…
provide standardised licences
that facilitate sharing
are flexible
are easy to use and understand (for people and machines) and
that apply in the same way anywhere in the world.

CC Myths
CC is not:
Anti-copyright – just another rights management tool for creators
The public domain – just giving certain permission in advance
Anti-commercial – can charge for first use, commercial uses, “premium” service, or embed advertising
Right for every situation – entirely voluntary, and won’t be best solution for all creators
