RLO’s
Reusable Learning Objects
Adapted from the Wisconsin Online Resource Center:
Learning objects are a new way of thinking about learning
content. Traditionally, content comes in a several hour
chunk. Learning objects are much smaller units of learning,
typically ranging from 2 minutes to 15 minutes.
• Are self-contained – each learning object can be taken
independently.
• Are reusable – a single learning object may be used in
multiple contexts for multiple purposes.
Can be aggregated – learning objects can be grouped into
larger collections of content, including traditional course
structures.

Copyright Issues
 From: http://www.fplc.edu/tfield/copynet.htm
 “Fair use.
Fair use is one of the most important, and least clear cut, limits to
copyright. It permits some use of others' works even without
approval. But when? Words like "fair" or "reasonable" cannot be
precisely defined, but here are a few benchmarks.
Uses that advance public interests such as criticism, education or
scholarship are favored -- particularly if little of another's work is
copied. Uses that generate income or interfere with a copyright
owner's income are not. Fairness also means crediting original
artists or authors. (A teacher who copied, without credit, much of
another's course materials was found to infringe.) …..”
• If unsure; don’t copy. Either link to a video, or find another photo.
