#OER: Resolving Licencing issues_Activities


Activity 1:
 
 is the license I would choose if I created an OER for my students and wanted to share it with the rest of their academic community to use and adapt.
This Attribution-Non Commercial license is suitable because it allows my students to share and build upon the OER content I’ve created as long as they give me credit, abide by not using it for commercial purposes.
 
Also under the CC BY –NC license, students neededn’t license their new derivative work on the same terms.

Activity 2:


The Attribution-NoDerivs     license is the most appropriate when releasing original OER content in my subject matter.
 
The No Derivates license allows others to redistribute the original work without creating a new version of it.
 
According to the Publicity Rights included in this license terms,  the licensees may need to get permission from the original author before using the work commercially.   


Generally we can license our work using one of the options in the image below:
