Document Original and Source-Based Contributions
Credit integrity identifies which choices are yours and which depend on a source.
About 25 minutes, plus any extended practice
Supplied materials
- Paper and a pencil, typed notes or a browser scratch area. Color names can replace colored supplies; drawn figures and timelines can replace performance.
- Complete teaching inputs: A fictional process record labels the work original sketch. Which portfolio practice preserves integrity? Supplied candidates: (A) Assume a remix automatically removes all prior restrictions (B) Keep that actual provenance, document changes, and retain the stated rights status (C) Remove uncertainty from the record without checking it (D) Rename every source “my original work”.
- Independent check: A fictional process record labels the work adaptation from a documented CC0 diagram. Which portfolio practice preserves integrity? Supplied candidates: (A) Assume a remix automatically removes all prior restrictions (B) Keep that actual provenance, document changes, and retain the stated rights status (C) Remove uncertainty from the record without checking it (D) Rename every source “my original work”.
Learn the idea
Prepare an original capstone that is feasible and honestly documented. Reconcile limits with required evidence, distinguish artifact work from unobserved performance, retain provenance and reserve time for a specific criterion-based revision. Credit integrity identifies which choices are yours and which depend on a source. Preserve actual provenance, transformations and rights scope instead of relabeling every adapted element as wholly original.
Reason through the supplied case: The actual provenance states which choices are original and which depend on a source. Keeping changes and rights status visible avoids false authorship or invented permission. The task uses supplied fictional records and original alternatives rather than requiring a real legal determination.
A remix does not automatically remove source restrictions. This task uses fictional records and does not grant real permission; unresolved status should stay visible until appropriately checked.
- Read the complete teaching inputs and mark the feature, rule or constraint being tested.
- Compare the model decision with one rejected candidate; state the visible evidence or calculation that distinguishes them.
- Solve the independent check and the three changed-input practice cases before reading feedback.
- Create a fictional credit record distinguishing an original layout from an adaptation of a documented CC0 item.
- Check your artifact against these explicit criteria: The source and original contribution are separated, the transformation is stated and the recorded status is not silently expanded.

Keep that actual provenance, document changes, and retain the stated rights status
The actual provenance states which choices are original and which depend on a source. Keeping changes and rights status visible avoids false authorship or invented permission. The task uses supplied fictional records and original alternatives rather than requiring a real legal determination.
Take it further
New-input analysis: A fictional process record labels the work source recording rights unresolved. Which portfolio practice preserves integrity? Supplied candidates: (A) Assume a remix automatically removes all prior restrictions (B) Keep that actual provenance, document changes, and retain the stated rights status (C) Remove uncertainty from the record without checking it (D) Rename every source “my original work”. Expected relationship: Keep that actual provenance, document changes, and retain the stated rights status. The actual provenance states which choices are original and which depend on a source. Keeping changes and rights status visible avoids false authorship or invented permission. The task uses supplied fictional records and original alternatives rather than requiring a real legal determination. Create your own artifact: Create a fictional credit record distinguishing an original layout from an adaptation of a documented CC0 item. Completion criteria: The source and original contribution are separated, the transformation is stated and the recorded status is not silently expanded.
