I have downloaded some of the "free" stock photos and images that you have collated for users of your site to downlooad but how do we attribute these for our "eLearning projects" please as I don't want to breach copyright?
Sorry, I actually have a copyright question too. I don't mean to hijack this conversation, but there doesn't seem to be a search function to look through the discussions to find something relevant. Or I am just missing it. Anyway, my question isn't about images, but about content itself. I am creating a course on social media marketing and what to quote some information from a few articles, like this one on Twitter cards, but I'm not sure how to do this without getting myself into trouble. Some kind of "works cited" or "resources consulted" page thrown in at the end seems really tacky and amateur, but I know that I need to reference the source somehow. So how do I go about this and how can I include this necessary information in a way that isn't completely amateur looking? Also, do I need to get permission to quote information that is publicly available like this even with a reference to the source? I assume that many courses are created citing external sources, so if you can also direct me to some so I can see how others have approached this, that would also be helpful.
The search is at the top-right corner of the page. Just click the magnifying glass. You'll get hits for the entire site, but you can filter it by Discussions, or by other criteria.

Hi Beth,
Anything you download from the E-Learning Heroes Downloads section does not require attribution.
Thanks for asking :) Best of luck with your project.
Hi Nicole,
as for the media contributions that we users desire to share with the community for its reuse without attribution, where should we upload them? thanks

Ooopss. Lol, sorry. I see it now. It's quite small. Well now I feel foolish.
