Copyright for Educators

The Copyright Crash Course

WOW! Talk about a lot of information. It is no wonder that copyright is so confusing! There are so many gray areas that you have to really be sure before you use someone's work that it is allowable. Educators have a little more freedom for using copyrighted materials, but there are still some restrictions and criteria that must be met. I had taken a copyright course years ago and since that time there have been modifications and amendments to copyright law. So this was really good information to know. I think we have yet to see the end of changes in the law since the digital age has brought and continues to bring new issues to the table.
