Just a comment... I really like having the CC licenses from LOs on the assignments I hand out in class. It's a great way to interject the importance of citing other people's work and it's yet another example of the collaborative nature of science. Having these on assignments to my seniors lets me reinforce some of the things we discussed on Lit&Sem. It's great that everyone is getting credit for their work, but it's also great that we can provide such a good example for our students.
Prof. Reisner,
I totally agree!

I think you bring up a great point, Barb, and it goes beyond just the LOs we are adopting and adapting from each other. I know that academic integrity and the question of what constitutes appropriate uses of others' ideas has been a big issue at Carleton (and probably many other places as well). One of the best ways for us to show students how to adapt and attribute in the right way is to demonstrate it for them (the CC licenses make this really easy)! I have really been making an effort to do this with many of the figures I've been generating and/or adapting this year, and it's time consuming but I believe it's worthwhile and gives the opportunity to open discussions.
