Creative Commons Virtual Global Summit

The concept and ideas behind CC can only strive if sustained by a strong community of practitioners, and being continuously introduced to newcomers in a welcoming environment. OERcamps, a series of barcamps for practitioners of Open Education provide just that. A strong base is provided for getting to know and sharing experiences with the use of CC licenses in education. We will discuss our experiences with OER community-building events run in different formats including traditional workshops, unconferences, hackathons, and other alternative formats that have taken place over the past 8 years.
