Thing #23
Towards the end of APSU 23 Things, credit it given to the website "43 Things." This website allows you to set and keep track of your personal goals. Also, the project is somewhat based on the article "43 Things I (or You) Might Want to do This Year." The author of the article being Stephen Abram, is also credited and named. This is a great example of using someone's idea, but still giving them the credit they deserve. During the semester we have learned more and more about Creative Commons and what it is all about. If you use something that you never created, then the credit is due and needs to be included where ever you decide to use the material. If you are ever unsure whether to cite a source or not, cite it. It is better to be safe, than sorry. Learning the details about copyright materials is a subject us as teachers need to be familiar with. Creative Commons is a great site to use when looking for material that has already been approved for the use of others, and the credit is included. This is a safe way to cover your work at all times.
