8. What is the CC BY requirement in
the TAACCCT grant?
9. • All successful applicants must allow broad access for others to use and
enhance project products and offerings, including authorizing for-profit
derivative uses of the courses and associated learning materials by
licensing newly developed materials produced with grant funds with a
Creative Commons Attribution License (CC BY).
• This license allows subsequent users to copy, distribute, transmit and
adapt the copyrighted work and requires such users to attribute the
work in the manner specified by the Grantee.
• The purpose of the CCBY licensing requirement is to ensure that
materials developed with funds provided by these grants result in Work
that can be freely reused and improved by others.
SGA Requirements
10. • Work that must be licensed under the CC BY includes both new content
created with the grant funds and modifications made to pre-existing,
grantee-owned content using grant funds.
• Only work that is developed by the grantee with the grant funds is required
to be licensed under the CC BY license. Pre-existing copyrighted materials
licensed to, or purchased by the grantee from third parties, including
modifications of such materials, remain subject to the intellectual property
rights the grantee receives under the terms of the particular license or
purchase. In addition, works created by the grantee without grant funds do
not fall under the CC BY license requirement.
• The Department will ensure that deliverables developed with these funds are
publicly available.
SGA Requirements
11. Only work that is developed by the
grantee with the grant funds.
Applies to:
12. Pre-existing copyrighted materials
licensed to, or purchased by the grantee
from third parties, including modifications
of such materials.
Works created without grant funds.
Does not apply to:
15. “To ensure that the Federal investment of these
funds has as broad an impact as possible and to
encourage innovation in the development of new
learning materials, as a condition of the receipt of
a TAACCCT grant, the grantee will be required to
license to the public all work created with the
support of the grant under a Creative Commons
Attribution 3.0 (CC BY) license.”
16. “The purpose of the CC BY licensing
requirement is to ensure that materials
developed with funds provided by these
grants result in Work that can be freely
reused and improved by others.”
17. “This license allows subsequent users to copy,
distribute, transmit and adapt the copyrighted
Work and requires such users to attribute the
Work in the manner specified by the grantee.
Notice of the license shall be affixed to the
Work. For general information on CC BY,
please visit
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0.”
18. “We did this because open licensing
increases the impact of our investment
and helps us to be more strategic with our
future investments.”
19. “From a public policy perspective, the
Department is a better steward of public
funds by giving the public access to those
things created using public funds, and
ensuring that these products have as
wide spread a use as possible.”
20. “TAACCCT is a really big investment. But
we expect that OER will allow the impact
to be even greater than just the 800
colleges with new curricula and
equipment that we directly funded.”
23. “OER are teaching, learning, and
research resources that reside in the
public domain or have been released
under an intellectual property license
that permits their free use and re-
purposing by others.”
