I gave this talk on Creative Commons, copyright basics, and CC in education to the Center for Adult Learning in Louisiana. This slide set has been updated to reflect current language on the redesigned creativecommons.org and has been remixed from my previous slides with other CC staff slides, including Policy Coordinator Timothy Vollmer's slides and former CC Counsel Lila Bailey's slides.

10. Copyright law is increasingly
relevant to daily life

11. On any given day you and your students
(arguably) commit multiple acts of
copyright infringement in the course of
everyday activities

12. “...to promote the progress of science and
useful arts, by securing for limited times to
authors and inventors the exclusive right to
their respective writings and discoveries.”

13. C
Copyright covers all forms of creativity:
✓ literature
✓music
✓architecture
✓software
✓choreography

15. C
Default copyright...
✓ is automatic
✓ is “all rights reserved”
✓ lasts a very long time
✓ keeps getting extended

16. Copyright infringement can be very
expensive

17. This situation is a result of ever-
increasing legal protection colliding with
unprecedented technological change

18. In a digital world, we are all producers of
copyrighted content

19. You have a choice about how you
want to share your creativity and
knowledge with others

24. ✓ built on copyright law. Does not replace, substitute,
or provide an alternative to copyright.
✓ does not preclude fair use, but picks up where fair
use leaves off.
✓ does not affect rights not covered by copyright,
such as publicity or privacy rights.
✓ irrevocable and perpetual.
✓ can be changed/removed from a work.
✓ non-exclusive/allows for dual licensing.

25. CC licenses are unique because they
are expressed in three ways.
