Agenda

What is the CC BY requirement in the TAACCCT grant?

“To ensure that the Federal investment of these funds has as broad an impact as possible and to encourage innovation in the development of new learning materials, 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 (CC BY) license.”

“The purpose of the CC BY 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.”

Only work that is developed by the grantee with the grant funds.

Applies to:

Pre-existing copyrighted materials licensed to, or purchased by the grantee from third parties, including modifications of such materials.

Works created without grant funds.

Does not apply to:

“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. For general information on CC BY, please visithttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0.”

What do we do?

Traditional © designed for old

distribution models

The problem:

Cost of “Copy”

For one 250 page book:• Copy by hand - $1,000• Copy by print on demand - $4.90• Copy by computer - $0.00084

Cost of “Distribute”For one 250 page book:• Distribute by mail - $5.20

• print-on-demand (2000+ copies)• Distribute by internet - $0.00072

Copy and distribute are (almost) “free”

This changes everything

Agenda

“OER are teaching, learning, and research resources that reside in the public domain or have been released under an intellectual property license that permits their free use and re-purposing by others.”

5Rs: The Powerful Rights of OER

With $2 billion over 4 years, TAACCCT is the largest OER* initiative in the world.

*thanks to CC BY license requirement

Why did we do this?

U.S. DOL:

“We did this because open licensing increases the impact of our investment and helps us to be more strategic with our future investments.”

“From a public policy perspective, the Department is a better steward of public funds by giving the public access to those things created using public funds, and ensuring that these products have as wide spread a use as possible.”

“TAACCCT is a really big investment. But we expect that OER will allow the impact to be even greater than just the 800 colleges with new curricula and equipment that we directly funded.”

works

https://www.oercommons.org/

Online Skills Academy- open online courses of study, using

technology to create high-quality, free or low-cost pathways to degrees, certificates, and other employer-recognized credentials

- free for all to access, although limited costs may be incurred for students seeking college credit

- will leverage burgeoning marketplace of free and open-licensed learning resources, including content developed through the TAACCCT grant program accessible through DOL’s online repository

Open Educational Resources (OER) Repository Microsite- will house hundreds of

digital products created by the Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College and Career Training grants

What if we incorporate other OER into our materials? How do we give credit?

Q:

Tweak CC BY license notice to read that there are exceptions.

Attribute authors of OER you are using according to CC best practices.

A:

“Unless otherwise noted the NAC website by the National Aviation Consortium is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License.”





Then, make sure to note those materials that are governed by different terms.

You can do this on a separate credits page at the end of the resource. Example

Or you can note it right next to the material. Example

Part 2Technical Assistance

– Q&A

Who do we put as the author of our materials (eg. consortium, college, faculty)?

Q:

Up to your consortium or college’s policy. Grant doesn’t stipulate.

A:

How do we credit the U.S. DOL as a funder of our materials?

Q:

DOL has included exact disclaimer language in your SGA.

Round 2: See SGA p.9Round 3: See Correction: Intellectual Property Requirements

A:

"This workforce product was funded by a grant awarded by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Employment and Training Administration. The product was created by the grantee and does not necessarily reflect the official position of the U.S. Department of Labor. The U.S. Department of Labor makes no guarantees, warranties, or assurances of any kind, express or implied, with respect to such information, including any information on linked sites and including, but not limited to, accuracy of the information or its completeness, timeliness, usefulness, adequacy, continued availability, or ownership."

Required Disclaimer:

Disclaimer is separate from / has nothing to do with the CC BY license notice.

You can include it in the same section where you usually add your disclaimers or notices.

Note:

When are grant materials required to be publicly available?

Q:

At the end of the grant. Please consult your DOL federal program officer for details.

A:

Should our materials be in a final version before being made available?

Q:

They don’t have to be! We encourage sharing drafts to avoid duplicate efforts by other grantees.

A:

We are meeting resistance from faculty and others around opening materials. What steps can I take?

Q:

Remind them it is required by the grant! If that doesn’t help, we have talking points we can send you about the benefits of opening up publicly funded materials. Email [email protected].

A:




I can’t remember all this. Where can I go when I’m actually applying the CC BY license?
