Digital Copyright for 21st Century Citizenship

I attended a Digital Copyright webinar today put on by Barry Britt @ Soundzabound.com.  This was perhaps one of the clearest meetings I've ever attended on copyright.

Below are some of my notes and links that were shared.

4 Useful articles
Important points of Fair Use:
  • Relevant to course content (no background)
  • Used for face to face instruction on a closed network
  • No duplication for distribution
  • Credit/cite the copyright holder
  • One-time use
  • Licenses and contracts supersede fair use
Things to Consider
  • many artists don’t make as much as teachers
  • people are getting sued
  • students have copyrights / district usually has some ownership too / teacher / campus
  • If student is under 18 parents have rights as well.  Must have parent permission.
  • Offer an opt out for parents/students
We are all owners of our own image/brand
Image is Everything

  1. Hello,

    Nice video! Copyright law provides protection for literary and artistic works, giving creators the ability to control certain uses of their works. Digital copyright and related rights are provided by national laws in individual countries. Thank you...
