Thing #23 - Creative Commons

Regarding evidence for 23 Things being based off someone else's work, there is a tab on the side bar that reads "credits". This is where you will find credit given to previous creators of 23 Things' ideologies. Additionally, on the homepage of the 23 Things Project there is a note at the bottom that cites this project is loosely based off of the website 43 Things and the Stephen Abram article titled 43 Things I (or You) might want to do this year (Information Outlook - Feb 2006).

Creative Commons is a great place to make your educational discoveries and work freely accessible to others. Conversely, Creative Commons enables you to find educational content that is free to use in your own classroom.  I will definitely use this licensing platform for certifying my work (lesson plans, activities, professional development plans, etc.) and helping other teachers make their classrooms more effective for learning.  That's what it's all about right?  We want to help each become better educators so why not share content and ideas?
