Images
When adding images, you have to be careful about giving credit to the creator of images, unless an image is in the "public domain".
What is a Public Domain image?
- An image that is not just available to the public, but belongs to the public.
- It's been donated by the artist or its copyrights have expired or don't apply.
- The image below was donated by the photographer to the public, no strings attached.
Where can I find Public Domain images?
- Where can you find images you can easily add to your classes (without getting into trouble)? (Durham Tech Instructional Technologies Blog)
What if I can't find a Public Domain image? Try Creative Commons
- Creative Commons is an organization that created tools (licenses) for artists, musicians, graphic designers, film-makers,
writers, and photographers to share their work.
- Why is this important? We can use their work! And we can license our work, and our students can license their work.
