BASIC COPYRIGHT LAWS FOR TEACHERS
Five Basic Principles of Best Practices in Fair Use:
Educators can:
- make copies of newspaper articles, TV shows, and other copyrighted works and use them for educational use
- create curriculum materials and scholarship with copyrighted materials embedded
- share, sell and distribute curriculum materials with copyrighted materials embedded
Learners can:
- use copyrighted works in creatin new material
- distribute their works digitally if they meet the transformativeness standard.
What is Transformative Use?
"When a user of copyrighted materials adds value to, or repurposes materials for a use different from that for which it was originally intended, it will likely be considered transformative use; it will also likely be considered fair use. Fair use embraces the modifying of existing media content, placing it in new context," writes Joyce Valenza in the School Library Journal
