Creating OER and Combining Licenses

From The Orange Grove, Florida’s OER repository

This first of two parts of “Creating OER and Combining Licenses” presents a step-by-step process of finding and selecting open educational resources (OER) to use in a derivative work, choosing a Creative Commons license, and applying the license to the work.

This second video explores the challenges of using and remixing open educational resources (OER) with different Creative Commons licenses in a derivative work. It examines the restrictions of each license element, and illustrates how solutions can be found when licenses are incompatible.
