Interesting! I have searched for open source images before. Tricky sometimes as I have found that once in awhile I hit on one that I think is open source, and appears to be, only to find it isn’t.

IMAGE: I was looking for an image on ‘team work’ for an organizational behaviour course.

I used a Creative Commons search and an UnSplash search.

I settled on an image from Unsplash that I think reflects a good deal of my student body, and contains an element of fun–i.e.: it is representative of a group working together by doing something similar.

I also discovered Wylio — another CC spot to find images.

Attributing this image was something I needed to learn. Trickier! I used the following TASL model as a guide:

“Winter in town”, by David J, licensed under CC BY 2.0.

Therefore, my attribution would look something like:

“Friendship”, by Husna Miskandar, licensed under Unsplash

But I know there is something missing. I feel like I need to indicate the type of creative commons license. Or maybe not, based on the Unsplash attribution policy itself–I may have it correct above.
