If you observe the rotation off the north pole, it will rotate counter clockwise. Off the south pole, clockwise.

if you were in space looking down on the north pole it would turn counter clockwise

It revolves anti-clockwise if looked at from above the north pole. Obviously this is reversed if it's being looked at from above the south pole.

Depends which side you are looking from. If you look down on the north pole it is anticlockwise, if you look down on the south pole it is clockwise.
