The document outlines the goals and requirements for leveraging Creative Commons and Open Educational Resources (OER) to enhance TAAACCT proposals, focusing on increasing credential attainment and improving employment outcomes for TAA-eligible workers. It emphasizes the necessity for all materials developed with grant funding to be publicly licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 license to encourage innovation and accessibility. Key components include the need for evidence-based design, stackable credentials, and collaboration with previously funded projects to avoid duplication.

Leveraging Creative Commons
& Open Educational Resources (OER)
to Enhance TAACCCT Proposals
June 5, 2013

2. Overarching Goals
1. Increase attainment of degrees, certifications, certificates, diplomas, and other
industry-recognized credentials that match the skills needed by employers to
better prepare TAA-eligible workers and other adults for high-wage, high-skill
employment or re-employment in growth industry sectors.
2. Introduce or replicate innovative and effective methods for designing and
delivering instruction that address specific industry needs and lead to improved
learning, completion, and other outcomes for TAA-eligible workers and other
adults.
3. Demonstrate improved employment outcomes.

3. 1. Core Element 1: Evidence-Based Design
2. Core Element 2: Stacked and Latticed Credentials
3. Core Element 3: Transferability and Articulation of Credit
4. Core Element 4: Advanced Online and Technology-Enabled Learning
“To further the goal of career training and education and to encourage innovation in
the development of new curricula, applicants must publicly license all curricula and
training materials created or developed with the support of the grant under a Creative
Commons Attribution 3.0 License.”
1. Core Element 5: Strategic Alignment
2. Core Element 6: Alignment with Previously-Funded TAACCCT Projects
“All applicants must research educational institutions that received funding through
TAACCCT Round 1 and/or Round 2 to help decrease duplication and to strengthen
the geographic reach of their projects, and should coordinate efforts where possible.”
Core Elements

4. • As a condition of the receipt of a TAACCCT grant, the grantee will be
required to license to the public all work created with the support of the
grant under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 (CCBY) license.
• 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. Notice of the license shall
be affixed to the Work.
• The purpose of the CCBY licensing requirement is to ensure as broad
an impact as possible and to encourage innovation in the development
of new learning materials. Materials developed with funds provided by
these grants result in Work that can be freely reused and improved by
others.
SGA Requirements

5. • 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.
• The Department will ensure that deliverables developed with these funds are
publicly available.

25. Open Access

26. OER are teaching, learning, and research resources
that reside in the public domain or have been
released under an open license that permits their
free use and re-purposing by others.
Open educational resources include full courses and
supplemental resources such as textbooks, images,
videos, animations, simulations, assessments, …
Core Concept
OER are learning materials freely available under
a license that allows you to:
•Reuse
•Revise
•Remix
•Redistribute
