WHAT:
Today we went over creative commons as well as the different copyright laws for our digital videos in a jigsaw.
SO WHAT:
This information is very useful to me as a student today. I am always doing papers, making videos, and using videos in my school work. With out the proper knowledge of copyright I could get into some major problems--and I don't want that. It almost always spices thing up to use ideas from other people and things but without giving credit to them, it's breaking the law. All students need to know this information. It is getting so much easier to plagiarize with technology increasing the way it is, and many people don't really know what needs to be done to avoid that. I'm happy to learn this and I will be sure to use it.
NOW WHAT:
Copyright is not only an issue for college students, but even all the way down to elementary. I want to make sure that I am educated well enough to teach my students what they can and can't do, and importantly why. As educators, we need to teach our students what to do so that they don't get into trouble. Also to make sure they are doing their own work. Creativity is something that is easily sparked by other peoples ideas, we just need to make sure that they being credited, and I will definitely make sure my students know what they need to do.
