2. “The air and oceans, the web of species, wilderness
and flowing water – all are part of the commons. So are
language and knowledge, sidewalks and public
squares, … Some parts of the commons are gifts of
nature, others the product of human endeavor. Some
are new, such as the Internet; others as ancient as soil
and calligraphy.”
Part 1: The Commons as a New Paradigm
Part 2: Capitalism, Enclosure and Resistance
Part 3: Commoning a Social Innovation of our Time
Part 4: Knowledge Commons for Social Change
Part 5: Envisioning a Commons-Based Policy and
Production Framework

4. “The goal of the Sharing City is to
create jobs and increase incomes,
address environmental issues, reduce
unnecessary consumption and waste,
and recover trust-based relationships
between people.
With more than 10 million people living
within 234 square miles, Seoul is in a
good position to demonstrate the
benefits of tech-enabled sharing.”

“Shareable U. It’s part campus
sustainability, part new economics, part
DIY, and part open education. What
brings all these movements together on
campus is a desire to create more value
for less money via increased collaboration
between people, departments,
institutions, and communities.”

5. Impact #1: Open Policy

8. TAACCCT
Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College & Career Training
• Grantees must license new development with Creative
Common license (CC BY)
• CHEO resources will be publicly shared
http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/38818

9. 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.

10. Impact #2: Open License
SGA Requirements
•
All successful applicants must allow broad access for others to use and
enhance project products and offerings, including authorizing for-profit

11. Impact #3: Open Educational Resources
SGA Requirements
•
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.

12. OER are teaching, learning, and research
resources that reside in the public domain or have
been released under an open license that permits
their free use and re-purposing by others.
Open educational resources include full courses
and supplemental resources such as textbooks,
images, videos, animations, simulations,
assessments, …
Core Concept – 4R’s
OER are learning materials freely available under
a license that allows you to:
•Reuse
•Revise
•Remix
•Redistribute

13. Impact #4: Design & Development
Find and use existing OER!
http://open4us.org/find-oer/
Partner with other grantees developing health curricula.
Develop content using open file formats:
See Appendix B of Round 3 SGA

14. Impact #5: Pedagogy
Teaching and learning methods can
take new forms to leverage the open nature of the content.
Why not a commons-based
peer production model of education?
• Eliminate disposable assignments
• Use student work to contribute to and improve the course.
• As a built-in part of the education process develop globally
distributed resources in the form of public goods.
• Goods evolve and advance over time as prior work is built
upon, added to, and improved by teachers and students.
• Teaching and learning is applied to real social needs/problems
- intrinsically motivational.
• Use social constructivist and connectivist modes of learning.

15. Impact #5: Storage & Access
SGA Requirements
•
•
All grantees are required to submit their deliverables to DOL at the end of
the grant period.
The Department will ensure that deliverables developed with these funds are
publicly available.
DOL solution TBD.
Recommend you implement your own.

16. Impact #6: Marketing

17. Impact #7: Partnerships & Scale
Open shifts education from a solo
proprietary endeavor to a collaborative
shared process.
Find partners.
Form networks around OER.
Scale adoption and use.
