Ok..so this is it! Ready? Let's finish this "Thing"! :) I just took the time to go the the APSU 23 Things site and clicked the "about page" option. This tab gave me the explanation of where the 23 Things came from. Apparently, Stephen Abrams wrote an article entitled, "43 things that I (or you) may want to do this year". This caught the attention of the Technology Director of the Carlotte Mecklenburg County Public Library, Ms. Helene Bowers. She and her staff used Mr. Abrams article as a outline to design the "Learning 2.0 Program", from which 23 Things for Teachers was born.
Because of this "Thing", I am now more comfortable in my understanding of what "Creative Commons" is. I believe I can avoid using copyrighted work within my classroom based upon this assignment. I will definately make sure that I give proper credit to the work of others. I hope to teach my students the importance of using CC.
