Creative Commons and Digital Citizenship

We just finished up a project where we made a website about digital citizenship. A major part of this website used creative commons to display images and videos. Creative Commons is a place where people can share and use media from other people. It allows someone to remix and edit pictures to make them fit better to what they need. It is awesome for projects and it keeps people from getting in trouble for using other people's works. The skills we learned in the project and this class are skills that we can use for the rest of our lives. No matter what you do in life, you are going to need to know about your digital profile and how to maintain it. This class has taught us how to do that and I believe that every student should take a class like this so they can acquire these real world skills and help them learn about their digital footprints. I will always use this information so i can keep myself safe and eligible for schools and jobs that i want.
