Copyright Issues

Educators have a lot to think about when it comes to copyright issues. They need to stay on top of the changes to the laws. They need to explain them to their students and try to be sure that their students follow them. There is so much to think about because their students are so used to finding what they want to use, whether it be music or images, and using them in their projects and presentations. They need to understand what they can and cannot use and why. They also need to be instructed in how to properly cite their references and give credit where credit is due.
