Abstract

These bookmarks and activity packet were created to teach university students about the Creative Commons during the UWM Libraries' celebration of Open Access Week 2015, October 19-25. The bookmarks provide a quick guide to the Creative Commons licenses and can be printed on colored paper. The activity packet is a Halloween-themed paper doll coloring set that includes public domain and CC-BY materials, as well as a full range of Creative Commons licenses. Through coloring, mixing and matching, and other modifications, students can explore the possibilities of open content, engage in remix culture, and practice attributing the work of others.
