This initiative offers information about current copyright management practice in New Zealand schools. It also explains emerging open education resource policies that are aligned with the new New Zealand Government Open Access and Licensing framework. We will walk you through the Creative Commons licences and the relevent online environments (the basic tools), and outline practical steps for implementing them at your school. It is also a forum to reflect on the challenges and benefits of open access and to ask questions.
This workshop is a collaboration between the Open Education Resource foundation and Creative Commons Aotearoa New Zealand with support from the Ministry of Education and the National Library of New Zealand. Please encourage your school leaders to explore the exciting potential of open education resources in 2011.
Join us from 9.30am - midday at The National Library of New Zealand's Services to Schools Auckland Centre, 8 Stanley Street, Parnell. This is a free session, you can register your attendance by contacting Jane Hornibrook via jane.hornibrook@royalsociety.org.nz or phone (04) 4705 780, or by adding your name to the weCreate wiki portal.
