Copyright Infringement
This was designed as a very brief overview for students in violation of Copyright Infringement to review before taking their online exam in order to have their internet reinstated on campus.
Copyright infringement
This document discusses copyright law and illegal file sharing. It provides a history of copyright legislation from the Statute of Anne in 1710 to modern acts like the Copyright Act of 1976. Copyright protects original creative works and gives owners exclusive rights over reproduction and distribution. Common copyrighted materials include music, movies, books and images. While fair use allows limited use of copyrighted works, illegal file sharing by downloading or distributing copyrighted content without permission violates copyright law and carries penalties. The document aims to dispel common myths about illegal file sharing and provides legal alternatives for obtaining copyrighted entertainment content.

Equitable computing aims to provide equal computer access and resources to all students regardless of learning level or financial situation. However, large class sizes and limited budgets can make this challenging. Ethical computing focuses on creating a safe online environment through web and email filtering, teaching students online safety, and monitoring student internet use. Educators must also consider ethics around social media use and posting student work online. Copyright and intellectual property laws apply to online content and software, and districts establish acceptable use policies to govern technology use.

Lesson on Digital Ethics & Copyrights
This is a lesson I created for an assignment in my EdTech program. It can be used in middle school & high school technology classes to introduce the basics of copyrights, and guidelines for reducing infringement on copyrighted material.
Digital law
Digital law governs the legal use of technology and aims to protect users' rights and safety online. However, many people irresponsibly break these laws through illegal activities like file sharing copyrighted content, software piracy, hacking, and identity theft. Digital law has both positive impacts through protecting users, and negative impacts when violated unethically through criminal behavior. Common violations include illegal downloading, creating viruses, hacking, identity theft, and copyright infringement, which can result in consequences like punishment. Students are advised to be responsible and ethical digital citizens by avoiding inappropriate content and personal information sharing, using antivirus software, and paying for digital content instead of pirating.

Why Property Laws are Important Property Laws play a fund.docx
Why Property Laws are Important
Property Laws play a fundamental role
in shaping a society and in preserving
its order by establishing relationships
between:
individuals,
different sorts of objects,
the state.
Tangible Property
When discussing property, we tend to
think of tangible items.
Originally, "property" referred to land.
Property now also includes objects that
one can own, such as:
an automobile,
articles of clothing,
a stamp collection.
Property as a ―Relational‖
Concept
Property should not be viewed simply in
terms of items or things.
Philosophers and legal theorists point out that
property also describes relationship between
individuals in reference to things.
They also note that three elements need to be considered:
(i) an individual (X ),
(ii) an object (Y),
(iii) X's relation to other individuals (A, B, C, etc.) in
reference to Y.
Property as a Form of ―Control‖
X (as the owner of property Y) can control Y
relative to persons A, B, C, and so forth.
If Harry owns a certain object (e.g. a Toshiba
laptop computer), then Harry can control who
has access to that object and how it is used.
For example, Harry has the right to exclude Sally from using
the laptop computer; or he could grant her unlimited access
to that computer.
Ownership claims involving "intellectual
objects" are both similar to and different from
ownership of tangible objects.
Intellectual Objects
The expression intellectual objects refers to
various forms of intellectual property.
Intellectual property consists of ―objects‖ that
are not tangible.
Non-tangible or "intellectual" objects
represent creative works and inventions, i.e.,
the manifestations or expressions of ideas.
Intellectual vs. Tangible Objects
Tangible objects are exclusionary in
nature.
If Harry owns a laptop computer (a physical
object), then Sally cannot, and vice versa.
Intellectual objects, such as software
programs, are non-exclusionary.
If Sally makes a copy of a word-processing
program (that resides in Harry's computer), then
both Sally and Harry can possess copies of the
same word-processing program.
Intellectual vs. Tangible Objects
(continued)
The sense of scarcity that applies to tangible
objects, which often causes competition and
rivalry, need not exist for intellectual objects.
There are practical limitations to the number
of physical objects that one can own.
There are limitations (natural and political) to the
amount of land that can be owned.
Intellectual objects can be easily reproduced.
Countless copies of a software program can be
produced – each at a relatively low cost.
Ownership of Intellectual vs.
Tangible Objects
Legally, one cannot own an idea in the
same sense that one can own a physical
object.
Governments do not grant ownership
rights to individuals for ideas per se.
Legal protection is given only to.
Copyright in the classroom
Copyright law grants authors and inventors exclusive rights over their creative works. Copyright automatically applies to original works like books, music, art, and software upon creation. Schools can use copyrighted materials for educational purposes under certain conditions like fair use or obtaining a site license. Illegal copying, known as piracy, costs authors billions each year. New guidelines under acts like TEACH aim to expand access to copyrighted works for distance learning while still protecting owners' rights.
Cyber ethics
The document discusses several ethical and legal issues related to cyberspace for educators, including plagiarism, code and content theft, viruses, and pornography. It outlines challenges like the ease of accessing copyrighted content online and distributing viruses. The document recommends that schools set clear internet use policies, monitor student work, educate parents on internet risks, and obtain proper permissions and licenses to avoid legal issues from copyright infringement.
