Copyright law provides limited exclusive rights to authors and artists for their creative works. A copyright exists in original works like books, music, art and more. Works are protected for the life of the author plus 70 years. The public domain includes works where the copyright has expired or the author has dedicated the work. Fair use allows limited use of copyrighted works for purposes like commentary without permission. When creating new works, all included content must be properly licensed or in the public domain to avoid infringement.
This is a short presentation to give an overview of copyright law. At the end of the presentation there are details about the next class project along with some resources.

Every podcast uses music in some aspect of the production. The proper use of music is important as getting on the wrong side of copyright laws can land you in hot water fast. There is no loophole to get around the use of copyrighted media without purchasing the rights to use the work or obtaining permission from the copyright holder. Luckily, there are a number of ways you can obtain access to media for use in your production, both paid and free. There are also a variety of stock music and sound effects sites that allow you to purchase copyrighted materials. Do a search for stock audio and find the one that best fits your needs.

All businesses should consider their legal obligations when using music in any form – from public performances (such as at weddings) to background sounds during work meetings! Taking proper precautions can protect your business interests and ensure that you’re getting the most out of your music library.
However, copyright law doesn’t stop there. In addition to protecting music creators, copyright law also creates public performance and streaming channels for music distribution. This means that anyone can access and listen to music without having to pay an expensive fee. It also opens up the door for new payment systems that can help musicians earn a fair wage for their creations.

Question_1/Proper Summary Procedure -.docx
Proper Summary Procedure
Once you’ve identified the passage (thesis, argument) to be summarized, do the following:
1. Know the Passage
Read it, re-read it and re-read it again; Take notes; Do a Who / What analysis: Briefly answer the questions “Who” “What” “Where” “When” “Why” and “How” as part of your notetaking process; Before you begin drafting your summary you should know the passage so well, you could tell someone in your own words what it says without having to look at the passage.
2. Set the original aside
Looking at the original while you draft will greatly increase the chances of unintentional plagiarism.
3. Get something down
Using your notes, your Who/What analysis and your memory, make an attempt to summarize the passage. Understand that it won’t be perfect.
4. Go back to the original and check your summary for the following (in order):
A. Precision of the Language: Make sure you haven’t butchered the language! Revise for clarity and precision. You might have to revise several times to get the language right.
B. Accuracy: Make sure your summary accurately captures the intent of the original passage.
C. Violations of the Four Word Rule: Get in there and count! Make sure you have not unintentionally plagiarized the original passage.
Question_1/Sample Summary Paper -.docx
Sample Summary Paper:
Thesis
Lessig claims that we need to find a means of protecting artist’s financial interests while also continuing to encourage technological innovation through certain forms of piracy or theft.
First argument
He tells us all of our major media had its origins in theft. For example, filmmakers travelled to Hollywood, California in an attempt to avoid the patent protections Thomas Edison held on filmmaking technology. They thought California was far enough away that federal law enforcement couldn’t reach. By the time federal law enforcement caught up to these filmmakers, the patents had already expired.
Rest of Summary
[include one more example – i.e. cable tv].
Lessig argues that some forms of piracy are clearly beneficial because they promote innovation in technology. For this reason, he’d like to see person to person file sharing encouraged, so long as we can find a way to protect the artists from those who would make a profit from selling their work.
**** When writing your actual summary paper, DO NOT INCLUDE THE RED HEADERS ABOVE. I have inserted these to help clarify the process. Your actual summary paper (on “The Closing of the American Book”) should be in traditional paragraph form.
Question_1/Some Like It Hot --.docx
Some Like It Hot
OK, P2P is "piracy." But so was the birth of Hollywood, radio, cable TV, and (yes) the music industry.
If piracy means using the creative property of others without their permission, then the history of the content industry is a history of piracy. Every important sector of big media today - film, music, ...

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
2. What is Copyright?
A copyright is a “limited duration monopoly”
provided by the U.S. Constitution to authors,
inventors, and other creative individuals.
Copyright law is written to encourage the
growth of knowledge by giving authors and
artists limited time exclusive rights to use and
profit from their creations.
3. What is Copyright?
If a song or book or anything else is under
copyright protection, you cannot use it without
the author's permission. Usually a music
copyright owner will charge fees called
"royalties" in exchange for permission to use
music.
4. Public Domain
A work is in the public domain when...
1. The copyright term has expired or if
copyright protection for that work was not
maintained in the manner required prior to
1989. In the US, as a general rule, the
copyright term will only have expired in
relation works published before 1923.
5. Public Domain
2. The work is an unpublished work and special
rules indicate it has fallen into the public
domain. Some unpublished works, such as
non-published academic papers found
online, are in the public domain.
6. Public Domain
3. The author or copyright owner dedicated the
work to the public domain. If the author of a
work has labeled his/her work as being in
the public domain, it’s fair game.
7. Public Domain
You can use any work that is in the public
domain without obtaining permission of the
original author or copyright owner.
8. Sound Recordings
The Copyright Act of 1976 created a copyright
category called Sound Recordings that now
provides federal copyright protection for CD's,
MP3's, WAV files, records, and other music
recordings made after February 15, 1972. These
Sound Recordings receive copyright protection
for 70 years after the death of the last surviving
author.
9. Sound Recordings
But the Copyright Act of 1976 and the Sonny
Bono Copyright Extension Act left copyright
protection for sound recordings fixed or
published before February 15, 1972,
remaining under state law until 2067.
The Earliest that Copyright Protection will
Expire for any Sound Recording in the USA is
2067
10. Sound Recordings
Remember that a musical work and a sound
recording of a musical work have separate
copyright protection. The children's song,
"Mary Had A Little Lamb" is absolutely in the
public domain worldwide, and it can be freely
used by anyone.
11. Sound Recordings
However, in the USA, no sound recordings of
"Mary Had A Little Lamb" are in the public
domain. If you want to use any sound
recording - even a sound recording of a
public domain song - you must either
license a recording or create your own
recording.
12. Music vs. Recording
A Musical Work and a Sound Recording of
a Musical Work have separate and extremely
different copyright protection.
13. Fair Use
Section 107 contains a list of the various
purposes for which the reproduction of a
particular work may be considered “fair,” such
as criticism, comment, news reporting,
teaching, scholarship, and research.
14. Fair Use
Fair Use is subject to broad interpretations.
Although "commentary and news reporting" is
pretty clear "educational and other uses" is not.
Many infringements and lawsuits occur when
this portion of the law is interpreted too
broadly. As a user, it's always best to ask
permission or pay the fee.
15. Fair Use Misconceptions
1. Acknowledgement is not enough! Some
authors have the wrongful belief that an
acknowledgement will turn a copyright
infringement into “fair use.” This is a myth.
16. Fair Use Misconceptions
2. Disclaimers Are Not Enough Either. Another
point of confusion is whether an upfront
disclaimer that denies any association
between the work and the copyrighted
material can protect someone from liability.
17. Creative Commons License
If an author or copyright owner has labeled
their work with a Creative Commons license ,
then the work is automatically in the public
domain. Creative Commons is a great site to
find materials that you can use either without
any attribution, or with some attribution,
depending on the nature of the license granted.
18. ID-ing CC Material
A human-readable statement that a piece of
content is licensed under a Creative Commons
license:
“This work is licensed under a Creative
Commons Attribution 2.5 license
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.5/.
&rdquo”
20. What if I Accidently Use It?
You would probably receive a “cease and desist”
letter from the copyright holder advising that
you have infringed on his copyright. You would
them present your public domain research
findings and attempt to reach an amicable
agreement with the copyright holder.
21. What if I Accidently Use It
If you had done your research properly and had
good reason to believe you had a legal right to
use the music, hopefully the copyright holder
would accept the most reasonable royalties
possible for the use you made of his song.
22. What if I Accidently Use It
However, making an honest error in no way
protects you from paying royalties. After you
have already used the song, you are dependent
on the copyright holder's mercy when royalties
are assessed. If there is any doubt about rights
to a song, you should always obtain clearance
through an attorney or rights clearance
organization prior to any usage.
23. Creating Your Own Audio
When creating audio, it is important to make
sure all necessary rights/permissions are
secured for included material. This is relatively
easy if you create all of the material, but can
become progressively more complex the more
you include material created by other people.
24. Creating Your Own Audio
If you do not obtain the necessary rights and
permissions, you may get into legal trouble for
incorporating third party material into your
audio and for also authorizing others to use
that material as part of your audio.
25. Generally...
If you have created all the material included in
your audio, you will not violate copyright law.
If you include material created by other people,
you are responsible for obtaining the necessary
rights and permissions from the copyright
owner.
26. Keep in Mind!
If audio involves recording students, guest
lecturers, community members, and so forth,
you need to have the interviewee(s) sign a
consent release form or at a minimum, record
their consent. The signed consent form from
the speaker(s) or recorded verbal consent is
required before you upload your audio.
