This week's task

Familiarise yourself with some of the copyright issues for posting information on the web. The goal is that we understand the Creative Commons license that we will be pasting on to our stories. The webinar will clarify this issue. 

Write a reflection comment either on the blog under one of the posts or in our Facebook group at the end of the week.
