Description

Creative Commons - Adobe Slate Based Workshop

This is an Adobe Spark tutorial based on a session I run within various courses here at the University.

DOWNLOAD LESSON PLAN

LINK TO ADOBE SPARK TUTORIAL

The session should last about 45 mins.

I have run this session in many forms for a number of years. It appears to work with many fundamental concepts being understood. I am really pleased with this latest Adobe Spark manifestation which students can follow along with on phones and pads and have access to within our virtual learning environments.

Enjoy!

Comments welcomed!

This is great work Ian. I may use the ideas with my 2nd year programming students.

Hi Ian. That's a great content. I will show the lessons to my partners. It is always helpful to learn about copyright when you have online businesses. Thanks.

Thanks a million for the quickie. I really like CC Kiwi video, this would be great for my students to watch and learn a bit on copyright!

Thanks Ian,

I'm creating a 20 minute micro teaching session for a 'Train the Trainer' Course and this is a perfect resources for me to add to the additional materials.

Thanks, Ian!
I am looking for how teachers are using Slate - this is perfect.
I will use it in my classroom.

I wish Adobe would merge Slate and Voice so that Slate would have sound!

Hi Judy, you may already know this by now but it turns out they've replaced Slate with Spark! Sorry for replying to an old post.

Thanks for sharing the great resource. Digital Stewardship is becoming a very important focus in our board's 21st Century Learning Plan. Love the format can't wait to try Slate out. Take care.

How do I access this tutorial?

Ian Upton

Posted on Jun 10, 2015 - Permalink

Hello Sheree,

This has been mentioned a couple of times - so you are not alone!

The resource is a web link. Scroll up and under Resource Assets you will see a web link. Thats it!

Or. Just click here :-)

Creative Commons - Adobe Slate Workshop

And the other ideosyncracity... You need to swipe up (or scroll up) when you see the Creative Commons title. that has caught out a few people too!

oops :))

though resource assets seem like a strange heading...

Ian Upton

Posted on Jun 4, 2015 - Permalink

Agree Scott! It is equally unintuative when you create the resource. It is basically a web link.

When I first saw your message I thought you had accessed the Slate and hit another issue. The first screen gives no indication to 'swipe'. I have seen people completely flummoxed by that. A basic useability thing that I think Adobe need to (elegantly) address!

Hope all the hassle was worth it and you found the thing useful!

Ian.

well first I had accessed Slate, and scrolled down and down and :)
then I clicked on the link and came back here, as ignorant as ever :(

then I looked around more and found 'resource...' :)

all of the :( and :) is giving my face good exercise :)(

All 'this' https://edex.adobe.com/resource/abd6b392/

information, and nothing about how to access the tutorial for a first timer.

No apparent link or anything.

Finally found it partly by accident. Clicked on "Slate" and looked and looked :((

Resource Update

Rip! A Remix Manefesto added as a resource link on the Slate. Excellent documentary challenging notions of copyright in the digital age. This will certainly get your students thinking :-)

Thanks Kev Lavery for the link.

Cooool! Thank you Ian.

My kids love this doco.

This is great. A good example of how Slate can be used and really student friendly.

The timing couldn't be better too - I have just started a unit on this.

Hi Kev

Thank you for the positive comments and glad the resource is useful (and timely!).

Be great to hear how your students get on...

It has been really great for them. They're doing an assessment on media changes and developments (legal, technological, creative, etc) - they have free choice of topic so, after watching RiP: A Remix Manifesto (the greatest copyright documentary ever), one group decided to investigate Creative Commons and this resource has so far been invaluable. It's given them heaps of easy to digest info and opened doors into other avenues of deeper learning/research.

Outside of this resource they only really need to watch a few Lessig Ted Talks and they're home free.

This is great I have not used Adobe Slate but this is certainly an incentive. I like the CC Kiwi video and have used this is the past. Thanks for sharing this.

Thanks Deborah. I hope you and your students can make use of this!

As I already had the 'content', I found Slate a very quick and powerful way to 'package' the session. Pertinent to this subject, the Slate 'image search' hits CC resources and automatically credits anything you use. A huge time saver and a brilliant way to keep what we produce legal. Really shows the power of CC when applied in an application (like Slate) in this way.
