Affordable Learning Georgia
Textbook Transformation Grants:
Hosting Your WorkSlide2
To ensure that ALG
grant projects have a
lasting effect
throughout the USG, Affordable Learning Georgia
requires
works created through the grants to be
freely-accessible to the public
, preferably through an
open license.Slide3
To explain what we want, we need to distinguish between terms as they relate to these projects:
Open and Freely-Accessible Slide4
Open:
Free to access
+ legal
permissions
Creative Commons
= understandable, easy licenses giving these permissions
Freely-Accessible:
Free to access, includes both open and all-rights-reserved copyright
Example: PBS-supplied YouTube videoSlide5
Brightspace
(D2L) is NOT open
Brightspace
D2L is a USG-subscribed Learning Management System (LMS) which allows instructors to share a closed online course with their students.
If you want to make your D2L materials freely-available, you will have to present your material in an another platform, perhaps as a “copy” of what you create in D2L. Slide6
For your final report:
Newly-created course content:
Open Required
2) Free syllabus w/ collection of links for the course:
Open Required
3) Tests, Quizzes, and other
student assessments
:
OptionalSlide7
Newly-created course content must be
open:
Textbooks or short-form works
Supplementary materials
Photos, videos, audio
Created content will be shared by
links
to all content that is accessible on the Web through the
linked syllabus.Slide8
Sharing your
assessments
with anyone other than your own students is optional
:
Tests and Quizzes
Research Paper / Essay assignments
Successful sharers of
student assessments (such as
OpenStax
)
have a vetting system in place to distribute tests and quizzes to faculty only.
ALG does not have this type of system, so open is optional. Slide9

Preferred license: Attribution 4.0 International (CC-BY)
This is the most open (and least confusing)
license, and it requires
an attribution to the original creator and work
CC-BY allows for derivative works, such as new editions, remixes, and accessible versions
.
Avoid the ND clause (no derivatives), as this makes materials unable to be updated or remixed by others.
