elearn wk 11 disco responde donna Order Description assіgnment; Direсtly defend or dispute your сlassmate’s response to the statement on society’s interests and open resources (Wiley, Bliss, & McEwen, 2014, p. 782). Ask additional probing or clarifying questions pertaining to their predictions for the use of open source material in the future. Share an insight you gained from reading the colleague’s posting and study. Validate a classmate’s comments with your own experience. classmate post For this discussion, I agree with the statement that society’s interests are maximized when intellectual property is shared freely, with proper attribution, for noncommercial purposes. My reason behind supporting this statement is reflected in the system of educational learning and the ability to grow and expand knowledge through a professional collaboration of experts in the field of study. As reflected in the ability to create a strong, robust body of knowledge, part of the foundation of intellectual property resides in the its free cost and the four permissions, reuse, revise, remix, and redistribute (Wiley, 2010). Being able to reuse content allows for individual growth to ones’ own knowledge about a topic or research study. By revising, remixing, or adding to content, knowledge becomes unrestricted in its depth of richness. This allows for a redistribution of new knowledge and material that further strengthens Open Educational Resources (Wiley, Bliss, & M McEwen, 2014). In analyzing open source material, it is necessary to identify and understand the meaning of open access resources. Open access is not restricted by copyright or the exclusivity of the legal given right to the owner/originator of a work. It is free and available to all who wish to review and use the source. Allowing resources to have open access encourages modifications and enhancements to the source to improve it further (Hatzipanagos & Gregson, 2015). This creates a more hearty and rich source of knowledge from which an individual can research and learn. I predict that as open source materials grow, it will be necessary to continue to vet resources for authenticity and veracity to make them an integral part of the vast open resource network. Additionally, Creative Commons, a non-profit organization, focuses on expanding the range of creative works available to legally share and build upon to further global collaboration (Creative Commons, n.d.). By increasing the wealth of knowledge that is available and improving or adding to a knowledge base, eLearning will continue to be a formidable component of education and learning. It has been my personal experience that eLearning and the availability of open resources has created an environment where I was able to obtain my Bachelors, Masters, and now Doctorate in a completely immersive online environment. I believe that eLearning will continue to grow and evolve into a dynamic interface where learning and learners are completing educations in an online forum but experiencing the interaction and collaboration that is present in traditional brick and mortar institutions.
