Creative Commons WebQuest
IntroductionA major art studio from Paris is looking to branch
out into the digital age. They are searching for the next great
piece of digital artwork. It is their hope that this artwork will
inspire others to begin creating wonderful works of art in the
digital realm. Perhaps most importantly, they are willing to pay
handsomely for the winning piece of art. You are a young, broke, up
and coming artist. This contest may be your big break (and lets
face it, you could use the money).
TaskYour job is to create a piece of art using PhotoShop or any
other photo editing tool you can find. This will be accompanied by
a short paper which will explain the type of Creative Commons
license you chose and why. Since you are now familiar with
copyright laws be sure you give credit to the original authors if
you decide to edit photos. You will begin by researching and
learning about Creative Commons so you know which of their licenses
best suites your needs.
ProcessWe already know how confusing and restrictive traditional
copyright laws can be. If you need a refresher, click on the link

Commons aimed to create an easier way of sharing material. Click on
the link below. You may want to jot down some important ideas; they
could come in handy for your
paper.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=io3BrAQl3so Now that you know
why Creative Commons was formed, take a look at this cool
commercial that explains what Creative Commons does. Again, notes
are not a bad ideahttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKQmj56MLVgClick

ConclusionNow that you have learned about Creative Commons, you
are ready to create your artwork and write your paper. Be sure to
use the rubric as a guide when you are writing. Have fun!
ProcessTo wrap up our overview of Creative Commons, read through
this short article to tie together everything that we have been
learning.http://net.educause.edu/ir/library/pdf/ELI7023.pdfBy now
you should have a good understanding of what Creative Commons does.
Now, lets move on to the types of licenses you can get through
Creative Commons. The first link will take you to a video created
by CC Aotearoa New Zealand. The second link will take you to a
website that lists all of the different CC licenses. You will be
filling out the document that you downloaded at the beginning of
the lesson.http://creativecommons.org/videos/creative-commons-kiwi
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/You should now have all the
information you need to write your paper. Remember, you must choose
a specific CC license and explain your rationale.
