ii Course License

Creative Commons – Share Alike (CC_SA)

As a teacher, what I teach should be rooted in the works of others. At the same time I should honor the copyright of others. I hope I have navigated this challenge successfully. I have tried to cite sources and give credit to these sources. Some things I have learnt how to teach by participating in courses on e.g. edx.org or coursera.org or by following how my colleagues teach online or in class. My aim is to give credit to these original sources.

In the early stages of developing this course, I felt insecure with using the creative commons licence. Many of the sources I refer to, e.g. academic journals, were at the time (and still are) under copyright (this is also slowly changing). Gradually I have become more comfortable with sharing and hence the course has been for some time and is now under a creative commons – share alike license (cc-sa)

This means that the course can be easily technically copied. However my belief is that I can make implicit only part of the knowledge and experience I have and that a lot of the value added will be in the questions students ask and the answers I can give or that we can discuss together. Many of the video´s are on my YouTube account and should somebody just copy my course, they will in fact be making my YouTube account slightly more popular,

My hope is that this course makes visible what I teach. I hope students will find the material interesting and dive further into studying the topics I introduce. I hope I could travel the world and teach the subject in different countries.
