Hi everybody! Today I’m going to review the lesson from the video, “Sharing Creative Works: An Illustarated and Narrated Primer” by Alex Roberts, Rebecca Rojer, and John Phillips. First thing I’d like to mention is that if you haven’t seen the video, your out of luck… Haha just kidding. Here’s the link- Sharing Creative Works: An Illustrated Primer . Now let’s get down to buisiness. So here’s the question: What if I don’t want someone else to share or copy my work? People can’t use or share my work without permission because of © laws, or copyright laws.
Did you know that when you create something, it is automatically protected? Cool huh? Creative commons provides free licenses you can use to protect your work. $ means that people can sell or make profit from any of your work without permission. If it has a circle with a line through it, people can’t. And equal sign with a circle around it means that people can make changes to your work without your permission. Last but now least, a circle with a curved arrow inside, called the share alike, means that the terms you chose are honored.
That’s it for now. Just remember: You choose what you create and how it will be shared.

#SELFIE

I have so many memories, even ones from when I was 4. I remember horseback riding on my fourth birthday. And I remember how yesterday I went to the grocery store and bought bagels. But out of all of those memories, my best childhood memory was when I went to Lego Land® with my best friend, Alana, when I was in 3rd grade for my birthday. I remember when we picked her up from her house and drove all the way to San Diego to celebrate my birthday together. We went on all the rides. Alana told me that she remembers that her favorite ride was the dragon roller coaster. After we left, we went to my most favorite restraunt, Islands ®, and celebrated my birthday there as well. It was a day that I’ll never forget.
