The presentation from Melanie Wrobel on copyright reminded me of the muddy waters that are often associated with copyright. I have attended a few workshops on copyright and honestly, I am still very confused. I have compiled some resources throughout this enjoyable (gag) journey on trying to master copyright. Here are some if you wish to investigate (many of these were courtesy of a partnership we have with the great folks at Seneca College).

Video Sites
Another useful resource I have used is ‘tineye’, it is a reverse image search that allows you to upload an image and it will search the web for the other locations of that image on the web. I find this one to be very helpful if you are trying to determine if the image you are trying to use is an original or not. https://www.tineye.com/
Also, here is a helpful presentation on working with OER’s and creative commons:

…and a site that has some more resources complete with descriptions of their functions http://learning.signpostwebdesign.com/?q=node/2
Steve, excellent resources. I am afraid at this point to post any images. Is there a source you can recommend to cite images? I have looked in a few places but cannot seem to locate where the image comes from. Perhaps you have some thoughts? I am a bit overwhelmed with the idea of Copyright. We were certainly provided with a wealth of information.
Yes, thanks for providing all the resources, Steve. I especially like the video on using other OER’s and the TASL acronym is useful.
