OER and Intellectual Property
Channel: Joseph Vandal
Date: 2016-06-22

This webinar was recorded on June 15, 2016. Intellectual property rights refer to copyright, trademarks, patents, and other claims for ‘ownership’ of a resource – whether registered or unregistered. Issues around ownership, trust, provenance, attribution and risk are all aspects of intellectual property that can present significant barriers to open sharing or release of educational resources. Join us for a discussion between Dr. Cable Green, Director of Open Education at Creative Commons, and Rachel Bridgewater, Librarian at Portland Community College, for an overview of open licensing with OER, and how new OER projects are pushing open education further into the mainstream.
