How Creative Commons Works
Wanna Work Together? from Creative Commons on Vimeo.
Currently we are completing the Common Core Digital Password. The module called
"Creative Credit: Mix-n-Mash" covers Copyright and Creative Commons. This is very interesting but can be confusing. This video "Wanna Work Together?" explains Creative Commons very well. Students can share this with their parents.

Pair Programming Watch this video:
Room 8 start with Course 1. Students will create computer programs that will help them learn to collaborate with others, develop problem-solving skills, and persist through difficult tasks. Students will create their very own custom game or story that they can share.
Course 1 Starting at Stage 3. See how far you and your partner can progress.
Work with a partner using pair programming to complete the activity challenges. Take turns to solve the problems. If you get stuck just keep trying. You'll work it out by reading the clues and thinking logically.
