Creative Commons

Creative Commons is a new system, built upon current copyright law, that allows you to legally use "some rights reserved" music, movies, images, and other content - all for free. Creative Commons offers free copyright licenses that anyone can use, without a lawyer, to mark their creative work with the freedoms they want it to carry. For instance, a musician would use a Creative Commons license to allow people to legally share her songs online, make copies for friends, or even use them in videos or other compositions.

Students Give E-Learning A Grade Of Incomplete

I feel that the reason for students not learning from a computer based teaching is because most students that were assessed were not given technology based instruction before middle school (this is an assumption). Humans are a creature of habit. For example, if someone learned to multiply by 9s using their fingers then they are going to refer to it later. Again this is from common knowledge of my observations, but most students have learned how to solve basic problems that majority of everything is going to be based off of by age 12, so when technology is added, it adds an unlearned variable, and students will refer back to what they originally know so they do not have to learn something new.
