Copyright+Clarity

Fair Use for Digital Literacy

What's the purpose of copyright?

Definition of copyright from our consitution - **promote creativity, innovation and the spread of knowledge** What do kids understand about..... How do we teach kids to think critically about the things they are taking so they can create something new and meaningful?
 * copyright
 * exemption (fair use)
 * public domain
 * creative commons

What's the purpose? --why would you use Jackson 5 1,2,3 to play through whole presentation and not just during intro - what's the purpose? does it need to play for the whole presentation?

Range of comfort with use of copyright.

If students are only allowed to use creative commons, are we teaching them to think critically?

Good example regarding purpose:
 * Is the purpose entertainment? Is the purpose to deliver a message?
