Thing 23 of 23 Things: Creative Commons

For our 23 activity in 23 Things, we are to find an example or attribution that shows the Learning 2.0-23 Things for Teachers blog was based on the work of someone else and modified from its original. Here is a screen shot of the attribution listed on the the APSU 23 Things blog:

The circled text in this screenshot reads: "Credits - Learning 2.0 - 23 Things for Teachers is based on Learning 2.0 - 23 Things, a staff development program for the Mesquite Independent School District. That program was based on the Learning 2.0 program that was designed by Helene Blowers and adapted by the California School Library Association and others. Content and style for Learning 2.0 - 23 Things for Teachers has been borrowed and duplicated with permission, under a Creative Commons License". (I love using screenshots in my posts!)

Because thThere are so many neat ideas out on there on the internet for lesson plans, class activities, etc., that it would be very important to check for a Creative Commons License. (Or at least ask the original author for permission to use their idea). One idea I'd like to use in my future art classroom somehow is a Disney movie scene mashup to relay a message. Students of all ages will be engaged in learning from this technique because Disney movies are a big part of American culture. I would use the same scene snippet for each of the same words, however, for easier listening. Well, that's all for now. See you next post!
