Google “English for Academic Purposes” and you’ll get Andy’s UEfAP along with the EAP Toolkit.

But is Google really the place to start? Do we need to develop our search skills?

SEARCH & FIND?

11. CONVENIENCE

Access to resources

online is now so

convenient it can replace

using your own HEI’s

resources. Is there a downside?

a resource

can just be

about

making the

EXTENDED LICENSING SCENARIO

The following scenario is intended to promote discussion around the areas of creative commons licensing, the collaborations involved, and any other issues the discussion may highlight.

Page 30: Openness in English for Specific Academic Purposes

SCENARIO: Your educational institution is going to be working in collaboration with at least two other educational institutions in the UK.

You are going to create an innovative joint MA TESOL resource for Masters students studying and researching in the area of open corpora for teaching English for Specific Academic Purposes (ESAP). This facility will act as a provider of online resources. All institutions will provide some of their own existing materials that contain third party content (journal articles, images, extracts from books, and website content) which are made up of text and audio-visual content. 

The collaboration would like to make the content openly available whilst ensuring that their intellectual property rights are not compromised.

Page 31: Openness in English for Specific Academic Purposes

31

CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS FOR DISCUSSION: 

How would you license this content to users?

Would you consider using a Creative Commons licence, if so which one?

Would you need to consider more than one type of licence?

What would you need to take care of contractually in relation to the content?

How would you ensure that the integrity of third party content is maintained?
