Don't get me wrong: I'm a pyrate. I believe in open sourcing. I also understand the paradox in the Anglophone educational and academic ideologies that "you are a valuable, unique intellectual individual with something important to say; and you mean NOTHING, and we won't listen to you until you have a whole bunch of intellectual allies to back you up, and you can prove it." So...these are things we have to keep an eye on.

Although the copyright laws in Canada are not quite the same as the US copyright laws, there are many similarities, and a lot of the information on this post is still very applicable.

One growing resource for images is Europeana, an aggregation service that is slowly working to build a massive database encompassing the holdings of Europe’s many “memory institutions”. Europeana conveniently allows you to filter your searches by copyright status. If I search for images with the term “landscape”, the left sidebar allows me to further refine by specific copyright status, and by the more overarching categories of “Can I use it?”
Elizabeth E Charles's insight:
Europeana is a great resource for images

Massive open online courses (MOOCs) are still pretty new but more and more universities, platform providers and publishers are beginning to create MOOCs to raise their profile and showcase high-quality materials. But there is a risk that reputations can take a serious hit if materials and data are being used incorrectly, or without permission. The time to make sure your institution is squeaky clean is NOW, says David Kernohan, Jisc programme manager, e-learning.

Creators enrich the web with their creations but without licensing others to use and in some cases add up to that work, innovation will never develop. This is where the importance of a licensing body such as Creative Commons comes in handy.

Empowering Teachers and Students
As K-12 educators, you face unique challenges when it comes to using the Web. Not only are you trying to find resources to aid your teaching, but you're also on the lookout for resources that your students can use -- legally, technically, and socially. With so much out there, it can be difficult to figure out what is and isn't suitable for classroom use -- not to mention what will interest students long enough to tear them away from what’s trending on social media

One of the first things you definitely need to talk to your students about particularly during the first month of this new school year is the importance of respecting the copyrights of digital content they find on the net or anywhere else. Students need to understand how to correctly attribute credits to copyright holders when they include their works in classroom projects. To do this, they need to comprehend the notion of creative Commons.
