Teachers have been sharing ideas, materials, lessons, songs, etc. for many years. However, it has not been until very recently that teachers have been usuing the internet to spread their good ideas. TeachersPayTeachers is a great example of this type of system. Once you create an account, you can search lessons and activities that other teachers have posted online. The people who post original ideas benefit from getting paid to make and post lessons, and teachers benefit by gaining access to a plethora of teaching materials.
The video describes an organization called Creative Commons that allows people to put a license on something they have created so it can be shared online without credit being stolen. Such as with people who post things on TeachersPayTeachers, people want their work credited to them. As a future educator, I have already benefitted greatly from this and other similiar sharing websites.
