Copyright+Lesson

Copyright and Fair Use lesson:
Jan Tester and myself were given permission by the creaters of this lesson to use all the informationfor our own lessons. Lesson includes powerpoint, handouts, assignments, and quizzes to teach and assess students understanding of copyright and fair use. We decided that this lesson was excellent and we would not be able to improve upon it.

In addition this is a great website to add to the instruction. @http://www.readwritethink.org/

I introduced this lesson to my class this week. Using the index cards as a method of introducing the copyright concept immediately got the students attention. They did not like the idea of another student taking their idea and changing it without permission or worse yet taking credit for their work.

This is another great lesson that could be adapted for copyright instruction. It was originally written for a science class but could be modified for any type of class.
