Editor's Notes
- The web is a wonderful resource today, and it contains a vast array of works created by many people. These works could include things like essays, pictures, presentations, videos, and information – the sky’s the limit. The following presentation is called “A Creator in my Own Right.” It is designed to teach middle school students about copyright, fair use, public domain, and plagiarism. Because of the endless availability of resources, it is so important that our students understand the importance of copyright, and how to make sure that they are following copyright law when it comes to school projects, or even when they create their own works. Please click on the forward arrow to begin the presentation. Also, you will use the forward arrow to advance to the next slide when you are ready to move on. You may also click on the back arrow to return to the previous slide. Or you may link back to the table of contents by clicking the Return Arrow at any time. Enjoy!
- Please refer to the table of contents for the topics covered in this presentation. (NAME THEM). After viewing the presentation in its entirety, you may review a certain slide by clicking on the link, and you will be taken right to that slide.
- Before we get started, let’s go over what you will be expected to learn during this presentation: (read them) Click on the forward arrow to advance to the next slide, the back arrow to return to the previous slide, or the return arrow to return to the table of contents. You will be able to do this at any time during this presentation.
- Have you ever created something that you are proud of? Have you ever written a story? Have you ever drawn a picture? Have you taken a photo with a camera or recorded a video? Or, have you written a song? Have you ever used something created by someone else in something that you have created? Or uploaded images into a presentation? Or remixed audio or video clips in a mash-up? Watch this introductory video showing how students need to think about appropriate ways to use original work that they find online. Click on the public domain copyright symbol to watch the video. When you are finished, click on the forward arrow to advance to the next slide.
- We are all creators, whether we have written something on paper, uploaded items into a presentation, photographed objects, people or scenery, or created a project for a class. So, when you do create something, what can you do to protect it? What exactly is copyright? Click on this copyright advertisement image from 1906 and watch this brief video to learn more. When you are finished, click on the forward arrow to advance to the next slide.
- Remember, once an original idea is created, it is copyrighted. A general rule of thumb is that most anything that you find online, whether you download or upload it, or copy and paste it, is copyrighted. We all have a responsibility to copyright law when we are using things that we discover online. Here are few things to consider: *We need to check to see who created the work. *We need to get permission to use the creation. *If we use the work, we must give credit to the creator by citing the source. *If it is a video or song, we should buy it. *We must always use the work in a responsible manner. It is important that we avoid piracy and plagiarism at all costs, otherwise, it is considered stealing – and it is against the law. If you follow these simple steps, and give credit to the creator for their work, then you are being a responsible and respectful student. Please click on the forward arrow to advance to the next slide.
- So, what exactly is plagiarism? When was the last time you copied or downloaded a creative work – like downloading a video from YouTube or bought a song from iTunes? When have you used someone else’s work in one of your own creations – like using information from a website for a school report, or using images in a PowerPoint presentation, or downloading a YouTube video in a remix video that you have made? Click on the image of the copy cat and watch this short, informative video to find out more about plagiarism. When you are finished. Click on the forward arrow to advance to the next slide.
- As the video detailed, plagiarism is simply using other people’s writing, music, images, videos or other work, without giving them credit. When you take credit for yourself, it is called cheating. It is easy to unintentionally remove sections of someone else’s work, and adding it to our own. This is still considered plagiarism. Even if you paraphrase someone else or simply use their idea, it must be credited to the rightful owner. The only time you don’t have to cite the source is when the information is considered common knowledge – something known by everyone. We use copyrighted works everyday – when we enjoy media, create mash-ups, or create any new work – the important thing is that we always give credit. When in doubt – cite where it came from. There are right and wrong ways to use copyrighted work. Just remember, if you are guilty of plagiarizing, you could get into trouble at school, or if it’s really serious, with the law. So don’t plagiarize! This will acknowledge the rightful owner, and will show respect for the creator and his work. Click on the forward arrow to advance to the next slide.
- So, how can you use copyrighted work without permission? By using something known as the Public Domain. According to Google, Public Domain is defined as “the state of belonging or being available to the public as a whole, and therefore not subject to copyright.” Here are two examples of Public Domain sources. Feel free to click on the links to see what kinds of works are available to you in the public domain. If you ever want to copy, share, distribute, change, or remix any works retrieved from Public Domain sources, you must still remember that you cannot claim copyright. It is still very important that you attribute, or recognize on paper, who created the work that you are using. Click on the forward arrow to advance to the next slide.
- Another way to use copyrighted material is by Fair Use. Fair Use is being able to use a copyrighted work in an educational setting without getting permission from the creator. What would you consider an educational setting? When a teacher uses a website, video, music, pictures or other types of work for educational purposes. Or when students use copyrighted photos when creating a PowerPoint presentation for an assignment. It is also when a news report uses copyrighted material in an article. In order to determine if a work is adhering to Fair Use guidelines, follow these four points: *What is the purpose of the use? You want to use it for non-profit use. *What is the nature of the work? You want to add new meaning and make it original. *How much of the work will you use? The smaller the amount used, the better. *And what is the effect on the market? Rework it and use it in a different way in order to not hurt the original work. If you don’t rework an image, a video, a writing enough to give it a new meaning, then you may be breaking copyright laws. Keep in mind that the 4 points of fair use are only guidelines, so it is highly recommended that you always give credit to the creator. Please click on the fair use image and watch this short video to review copyright and fair use. When you are finished, click on the forward arrow to advance to the next slide.
- Let’s check and see what you have learned. Please click on the Q and A link and take the quiz. When you are finished, you may click on the forward arrow to advance to the next slide to continue with a fun project.
- Now, it’s your turn. Please take a look at this video example of a mash-up, which is simply when parts of a whole are rearranged and fused back together to create a new work. When you are finished, get with about 3 other people and create your own. You will use the website www.masher.com to create your remix video. When we come back to together, you and your group will have the opportunity to present your new work to the rest of the class. Have fun! When you are finished with your mash-up, click on the Home button to return to the first slide, click on the forward arrow to advance to the list of resources used to create this presentation, or click on the Return button to return to the table of contents. Thank you for taking part in this presentation. I hope that you have learned a lot of useful information as you continue on your educational journey.
