Creative Commons

What are the "affordances" and "constraints of the technology? In other words, what does the technology allow us to do or prevent us from doing? 
Creative Commons allows a person to obtain a license for  original works that they did and share those works with other people since unlike copyrights, creative commons allows the work to be shared and distributed without the authors permission as long as it not for profit. This makes students and teachers projects easier since they won’t have to cite everything but the students would lose the added benefit of learning about citation and giving credit to the author or creator.

What new skills do we need to teach the students?
     The students would need to learn the difference between the two so they would know what they absolutely had to cite and what they didn’t.

What will I need to do differently in terms of how I teach in the classroom? How will teaching and learning look different?
   This effects teaching since students will need to be taught what a copyright is and how important it is to cite those or everything just to be on the safe side.

. How does the technology help me foster creativity, innovation, and some of the other 21st century skills?
    It lets creativity into the class and should the student produce a work of their own, allows ownership and lets them share their work on the web.

5. What are some ways I can use this technology in the classroom?
This can be used to share information with the students and as an introduction to citation in a younger grade, I feel like it is more geared twards specific projects or videos.
