Navigating Open Licensing: Strategies for Access and Reuse

Speaker: Geoffrey Wilson In this informative video, Geoff Wilson, an Intellectual Property (IP) Manager at MIT Open Learning, sheds light on the world of open licensing. As we explore teaching and learning materials, we discover how openly licensed resources empower educators and learners alike. Three areas are covered: Understanding Copyright: Geoff explains the basics of US Copyright Law, emphasizing its protection over expressive works like books, songs, photos, and movie scripts. Copyright grants exclusive rights to creators, controlling aspects such as publishing, copying, and distribution. Copyright Challenges: Even for educational purposes, reusing copyrighted content can be a challenge. Fair use claims require thorough evaluation and are subject to review by a judge, and copyright owners may demand takedowns. Third-party licenses can also be complex. Open License Introduction and Types: Introducing the concept of open licenses. These licenses allow access, reuse, and redistribution of works with minimal restrictions. They provide an alternative to traditional copyrighted materials. Join us on this journey through open licensing, and learn how it transforms the landscape of educational resources!
