What is the CC BY requirement in the TAACCCT grant?
• All successful applicants must allow broad access for others to use and enhance project products and offerings, including authorizing for-profit derivative uses of the courses and associated learning materials by licensing newly developed materials produced with grant funds with a Creative Commons Attribution License (CC BY).
• 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.
• The purpose of the CCBY 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.
SGA Requirements
• Work that must be licensed under the CC BY includes both new content created with the grant funds and modifications made to pre-existing, grantee-owned content using grant funds.
• Only work that is developed by the grantee with the grant funds is required to be licensed under the CC BY license. Pre-existing copyrighted materials licensed to, or purchased by the grantee from third parties, including modifications of such materials, remain subject to the intellectual property rights the grantee receives under the terms of the particular license or purchase. In addition, works created by the grantee without grant funds do not fall under the CC BY license requirement.
• The Department will ensure that deliverables developed with these funds are publicly available.
SGA Requirements
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:
Why did we do this?
U.S. DOL:
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
public access to publicly funded
works
Bottom line:
“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
Full OER Impact1. Authoring new OER
2. Using existing OER in your development– Sourcing OER– Reusing, revising, remixing OER
3. Sharing & distributing OER publicly
– Repositories for storage, curation, and distribution
4. Leveraging OER through open pedagogies
5. Promoting and marketing to students
6. Leveraging OER by establishing downstream local, regional, national, and international partners
