Randy about Virginia:
CK-12 flexbooks will host a chapter on the Launch Abort System (LAS) in the Virginia Physics Flexbook. The simulations of the LAS will be done using etoys. I will make a self-contained version all in etoys that can be used from etoys-to-go. NSF will do a review of the current chapter on modeling and simulation - half of which is etoys. The Obama administration education group is having NSF do the review because they are interested in the approach as a model for education.
CK-12 wants me to put the chapter content in the Creative Commons. Does anyone have guidance for the best choice?
Best choice for..? They should automatically license you under CC.
Etoys is MIT licensed, I'm not sure how the relation is between MIT and CC.
CC: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/
GPL is a problem with Etoys because..
courseware blurbs
Tim will email a sample pbskids.org blurb for guidance on the type of language to use.
why Etoys?
