User Research
Research we did
- we were looking for arguments for and against Creative Commons on the internet
- we conducted some interviews
- we asked some pre-formulated questions and also some other during the interview
- pre-formulated questions were:
- Do you know Creative Commons? If yes, from where do you know it? In which way do you use it or why do you not use it?
- How do you licence your works?
- persons, who we have interviewed face-to-face:
- computer science student with facebook-account
- computer science and media student with facebook- and deviantart-account; she paints in her free time and publishes some scientific results to her university website; she corrected grammar and orthography in wikipedia articles
