Creative Commons

Make it simple. Numerous authors argue that the existing copyright system, created during pre-digital age, cannot work in the digital age (Lessig, 2010). The Creative Commons licensing system is created as an answer for that challenge. It provides simple ways for authors to mark their content with the freedoms they intend their content to carry.

Top universities  such as Harvard, Yale and MIT are intensively using Creative Commons licenses for their OpenCourseWare activities. It would be very beneficial if all administrators and faculty would become familiar with the Creative Commons framework and a few positive examples.
