Relevant discussion points

 * The NZGOAL Framework strongly encourages school boards of trustees to implement Creative Commons licensing policies as the intellectual property of the creative works of teachers belongs to the relevant board of trustees. --Mackiwg 02:16, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
 * The New Zealand National Symposium on Open Education has proposed an action item focusing on Creative Commons Policies for schools --Mackiwg 02:16, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

Ideas for action items

 * The OER Foundation will continue to offer the Open Content Licensing for Educators free online workshops -- however, we need help in getting the word out to teachers in the compulsory sector. --Mackiwg 02:20, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
