Yes! You Can Use Copyrighted Material for Digital LiteracyRenee Hobbs
In this session, Renee Hobbs, Sandy Hayes and Kristin Hokanson explore the importance of copyright and fair use for digital literacy. Participants gain knowledge about U.S. copyright law as it relates to the most common instructional practices in digital literacy and appreciate the concept of transformative use. They gain confidence in making a fair use determination and learn how to integrate fair use reasoning into student media production activities. Finally, participants increase their ability to advocate for the fair use of copyrighted materials in digital literacy
Session designed to develop knowledge of the distinctions between fair use, creative commons, and other types of licenses so attendees will understand how to evaluate the use of a copyrighted work to determine whether it is appropriate for teachers and students to claim fair use, use Creative Commons licenses, ask
permission, or purchase a license.
Participants will also learn some specific
activities that can be used to teach K-12
students about their social responsibility
and ethical use of information.

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.
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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

10. “ It not only allows but encourages socially beneficial uses of copyrighted works such as teaching, learning, and scholarship. Without fair use, those beneficial uses— quoting from copyrighted works, providing multiple copies to students in class, creating new knowledge based on previously published knowledge—would be infringements. Fair use is the means for assuring a robust and vigorous exchange of copyrighted information.” --Carrie Russell, American Library Association

What is copyright? What is your definition of it? What is copyrighted? How do you get a copyright?
Article I, Section 8, Clause 8 of the United States Constitution, known as the Copyright Clause, empowers the United States Congress: “ To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries. Copyright purpose: promote creativity, innovation, and knowledge. Copyright limits an author’s control over work so that creativity and spread of knowledge can be promoted. Copyright protects creative expression’ Patents protect inventions Trademarks protect marks or logos
Copyright law protects owners with 5 rights When an owner puts a copyrighted work on the Internet, it doesn’t give other users the right to redistribute that work.
Original = did not copy from somebody else, creative. Facts are not copyrighted => not creative, no one owns; need to be freely used to advance knowledge. Fixed, tangible = physically exists, recorded; Ideas and processes are not copyrightable Everything is copyrighted, but there are exceptions. Copyright law is “platform neutral” – images, music, video – all are protected equally under copyright law. Assume that everything you find on the web is protected by copyright unless you know otherwise (a notice on the stie) Section 110, 1 & 2: Allow teachers to use copies of lawfully acquired material for face-to-face instruction or purposes of online learning Section 107: Doctrine of Fair Use:
2006 Bill Graham archives owned rights to posters printing in 1960s advertising Grateful Dead, etc. DK requested licensing for 11 BG Archives images. They couldn’t come to a deal … too expensive. DK decided not to buy licenses and included the images in its book anyway. Did DK violate the archives copyright?
DK claimed Fair Use Every court said that the publisher had the right to use the images without payment or permission even though a licensing system was in place. The purpose of the original poster was to generate publicity, but the purpose of the new work was to document the concert event in a historical context. The Second Circuit (court below the Supreme court) focused on the fact that the posters were reduced to thumbnail size and reproduced within the context of a timeline. (Bill Graham Archives v. Dorling Kindersley Ltd. , 448 F.3d 605 (2d Cir. 2006).) The purpose of the copyright law was to spread knowledge and promote innovation. When use of the work is socially beneficial, it is Fair Use. an educational purpose does not necessarily make a use fair, nor does using a portion of a copyrighted work for commercial purposes necessarily make it unfair. The context and the situation of the use determine whether it is considered fair use. You can use or quote copyrighted material without permission or a fee when the cost to the copyright holder is less than the benefit to society Purpose of section 107 is to balance rights of owners with rights of users. Without section 107, copyright law would be unconstitutional because it would over-limit freedom of expression.
Four factors must be considered holitically; one is not more important than the other Students should critically think to do their own fair use reasoning Lawyers don’t make fair use determinations; users should make the determination … users know best the context.
Infringement – using an amount beyond what is allowed by law transformed = adding new expression or meaning, information, aesthetics, insights, understandings
Less you take more likely to be fair use. Heart of the work, less likely to be fair use (e.g., guitar riff of I can’t get no satisfaction) Harper & Row vs. The Nation regarding Gerald Ford’s biography, which contained a section about his pardon of Richard Nixon. The Nation published that portion of the unpublished manuscript; court ruled against The Nation.
Undermine new or potential market
Why is it important to consider the fair use factors? Demonstrate good faith. If you are sued for infringement, if you can demonstrate that you acted in good faith, you may not have to pay statutory damages even if the court decides you were wrong. If you cannot show evidence that you acted in good faith, you can be liable for damages Damages for infringing on a single work range from $750 to more othan $30K If the court finds the damage was willful, damages can go as high as $150K
http://cbldf.org/about-us/case-files/dwyer / In 2000 Starbucks Corporation sued comic book artist Kieron Dwyer for copyright and trademark infringement of its logo. Dwyer’s parody of the Starbucks mermaid logo appeared on the cover of issue zero of Dwyer’s self-published comic book Lowest Comic Denominator . OUTCOME Dyer’s work was parody and therefore protected speech under the First Amendment. Because it is protected speech, the parody logo did not infringe on Starbucks’ copyright. However, the judge found that Dwyer’s parody logo was “confusingly similar” to the Starbucks logo. The use of the phrase “Consumer Whore” in the parody logo could be considered offensive and thereby tarnished the Starbucks trademark. Dwyer ultimately decided to settle the case out of court. Dwyer was allowed to continue displaying his logo but such display was very narrowly restricted. The logo could not appear on comic books, t-shirts, or stickers. Dwyer could post the image on the Internet but not on his own website nor may he link his website to any other sites that show the parody logo. In short, Dwyer is permitted to use the logo as long as Starbucks can be confident that no one will see it.
Original image on the left: Art Rogers. Mr. Rogers’ black and white photograph, entitled “Puppies,” had been sold on inexpensive consumer merchandise such as greeting cards and postcards. Image on right: Jeff Koons, he is an American contemporary artist noted for his use of kitsch imagery, especially in oversized works. Koons is an appropriation artist—he uses pre-existing images to comment on contemporary culture. Created this sculpture for an exhibition he called “The Banality Show.” Koons did not make any of the sculptures for this show himself. Rather, he had Italian artisans create them to his specifications. Koons removed Rogers’ copyright notice from the card, and then gave it to his Italian assistants, with instructions to duplicate it as closely as possible in sculptural form. Koons’ notes on a blown-up photocopy of the postcard instructed the artisans to use particular colors, including making the puppies blue, and to add flowers to the couple’s hair. OUTCOME The court readily found that the sculpture was a “substantially similar” copy of the photograph. Small changes don’t count as fair use: changes in media, addition of color, addition of flowers in hair, changes to shape of noses of puppies Even a quantitatively small amount of copying can be infringement if it copies a qualitatively important part of the original work. Koons claimed that he was using the underlying images to comment on contemporary kitsch culture. In keeping with his theme for The Banality Show – the banality of everyday objects—Koons argued that the “String of Puppies” sculpture was a satire or parody of society at large which showed that mass production of commodities and images had led to a deterioration of the quality of society. The court said while it is fine for a satirical work to mock modern society, the original work must also be, at least in part, an object of the parody. Applying this rule, the courts made a legal distinction between “parody” as a critique of a specific work, and a more general concept of “satire.” The court in Rogers found that “even given that ‘String of Puppies' is a satirical critique of our materialistic society, it is difficult to discern any parody of the photograph ‘Puppies' itself.” The court noted that viewers would not be aware of the original “Puppies” photograph, stating: “If an infringement of copyrightable expression could be justified as fair use solely on the basis of the infringer's claim to a higher or different artistic use-without insuring public awareness of the original work-there would be no practicable boundary to the fair use defense. http://www.owe.com/legalities/legalities30.htm
