MIT OpenCourseWare Notes

MIT OpenCourseWare publishes material under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 on its terms page, while also warning that some external or third-party linked content may be excluded from that license.

That means a Didactopus ingestion pipeline should not simply mark an entire pack as reusable without nuance.

Recommended handling:

  • record MIT OCW course pages as licensed sources
  • record individual excluded items explicitly when identified
  • preserve the license URL in source metadata
  • record whether Didactopus generated an adaptation
  • generate an attribution artifact automatically
  • propagate a noncommercial/sharealike flag in pack metadata when derived content is redistributed
