Part 1-- What is copyright – copyright
means if you can create it you have the right to protect it and legally claim
it as your own. This was nice explained in the very first video I watched on
copyright. What that means to me is simply anything that I create and wish to
protect that includes my short stories I need to have copyrighted. As the
owner of the work I will have all rights to use and reuse it unless I give
permission to others to use my work. I also understand that material that
are improvisational that are not filmed or recorded can’t be copyright.
From viewing the other videos on copyright I learned that individuals with
copyright ownership has that for the lifetime plus 70 years and companies
copyright lasts for 100 years which is an extremely long time.
Part 2--What is fair use- fair use is
not a right it is a legal defensible position. It involves these three conditions
whether something is fair use nature, the amount (which is unassigned percent)
and commercial effect. As an educator one must be very careful when
dealing with fair use because although the amount is unassigned it is still a
very small percent. Teachers are still required to follow the same fair
use rules as non-educators when it comes to materials. They have to give credit
to the owner of the material and how much is use is just as important as well.
Part 3-- What is Creative Commons Solutions-
creative commons is a place to find all kinds of material that is free to use
as long as you give credit to the owner of the material. Creative commons
solution uses symbols to inform the borrower how they are allowed to use the
material and the type of permission they are given for that particular
work.
