What is a communication?
20
A communication includes:
• uploading material to a digital space for student access and use via
password protected access such as:

• emailing.

13 May 2021
How much can I copy and
communicate of a text work?
21
Teachers can copy and communicate text works as long as the amount copied or
communicated “does not unreasonably prejudice the legitimate interests” of the copyright
owner.
• Not a ‘one size fits all’ approach.
• Flexibility – you can copy and communicate the amount you need, where to do so
would cause no harm to the copyright owner.
• The ‘10% or one chapter rule’ is still a useful guide in making this assessment for many
text resources that are still commercially available.

13 May 2021
When can I copy and
communicate more of a text work?
22
You may be able to copy and communicate more of a text work (eg the whole work)
if:
• it is not commercially available within a reasonable time (eg 6 months for a
textbook, 30 days for other material) at an ordinary commercial price
• the use isn’t replacing a sale (eg all students in the class have already
purchased a copy) or
• it is made freely available on the internet without any expectation of payment.

Teachers can copy and
communicate whole artistic

Disability access exceptions
35
The Copyright Act contains two free disability access exceptions:
1. use of copyright material by organisations assisting persons with a
disability (‘organisational disability exception’) and
2. fair dealing for the purpose of assisting persons with a disability (‘fair
dealing for disability exception’).
https://smartcopying.edu.au/guidelines/library-exam-and-disability-copying/disability-
access-exceptions/

13 May 2021
Disability copying exceptions
36
Broad range of disabilities covered - such as difficulty in reading, viewing,
hearing or comprehending copyright material in a particular form.
Includes students:
• with vision or hearing impairments
• who are unable to hold or manipulate books
• with an intellectual disability
• with general learning difficulties such as dyslexia.

13 May 2021
37
Under these exceptions, teachers can:
• create a digital version of a hardcopy book and make any necessary
adjustments, such as the font size or colour, to assist students vision
impairments
• create audiobooks for students with vision impairment.
Both exceptions can be used by teachers to assist students with a
disability, but the circumstances in which they apply differ.

13 May 2021
Organisational disability
exception
38
• Allows TAFEs to make accessible format copies for students with a
disability if the copyright material is not commercially available in the format
required by the student and with the appropriate features they require.
• No restriction on the kind of format that can be created under this exception
and could include the copying of a whole text work to a more accessible
format.

13 May 2021
Organisational disability
exception
39
Best practice to include the following notice where reasonably
practicable:
This material has been copied/made available to you under section
113F of the Copyright Act. Any further reproduction or communication
of this material by you may be the subject of copyright protection
under the Act. Do not remove this notice.

13 May 2021
Fair dealing for the purpose of
access by persons with a
disability
40
• The fair dealing for disability exception allows teachers to copy materials for
students with a disability provided the use is ‘fair’.
• Common examples of fair dealings include:
o copying short extracts from films or news stories and captioning them
o copying pages from a book and enlarging the font.

13 May 2021
Organisational Disability Exception Fair Dealing for Disability Exception
If you need to copy or format shift an
entire copyright work, it’s recommended
that you use the organisational disability
exception provided the material is not
commercially available.
Where you are copying an extract or
portion of a work for a disabled student,
you may be able to rely on the fair
dealing for disability exception. You can
rely on this exception regardless of
whether the material that your student
requires is commercially available.
41
Which disability exception
applies?

13 May 2021
Students fair dealing
42
• Students can copy and communicate works under “fair dealing” without
seeking the permission of the copyright owner.
• Most of the copying/communicating that students do as part of their study
will fall under the fair dealing for research and study exception.

Copying and communicating films
46
• Teachers may be able to copy and communicate films (eg make a digital copy of a film
and upload to a DTE):
○ in limited circumstances under the flexible dealing exception. You must assess
your proposed use against a number of criteria on a case-by-case basis.
○ to play to a class under s 28. This copy must be removed once the class is over.
• Note that copying films from sites like YouTube or Vimeo may be contrary to their terms
of use.
• It is better to simply play the film in class or provide a link to students.

13 May 2021
Copying films - guidelines
47
Flexible dealing only applies if:
1. You cannot rely on any other licence or exception AND
2. You need the material for educational instruction (eg teaching particular lesson or course) AND
Educational instruction includes:
• teaching
• preparing to teach
• compiling resources for student homework or research
• doing anything else for the purpose of teaching.
You can’t rely on this exception for ‘just in case’ copying.
3. Your use does not conflict with the normal exploitation of the material.
If you can buy the material in the format you need within a reasonable time, or obtain a licence for your proposed
use on reasonable terms, then you must do so.

Copying films - guidelines
48
If you meet those criteria, you may be able to rely on the flexible dealing exception provided you:
• ensure no further copies or downloads can be made - if you are uploading content to the
TAFE digital teaching environment (DTE), make sure it is view only
• limit access to the students/classes that need it for the specific instructional purpose - if you
are uploading a film to the DTE for a journalism class, only make it available to the students in that
class
• only use the amount of material that you need - if you only need to show students an extract of
a film, you won’t be able to rely on the flexible dealing exception to copy the entire film
• only make the material available for the time needed for the course of study - if students need
to access an excerpt of a documentary on the DTE for a course on marine biology, archive or disable
access by students to the documentary once it is no longer needed by the students.
You must not make a profit from anything you use under flexible dealing. Cost recovery is okay.

13 May 2021
Copying films
49
Some examples of uses that may be permitted under the educational exceptions include:
• format shifting audiovisual content from CD or DVD to digital for use on devices lacking
CD-ROM drives when it is not possible to buy a digital version of the film or sound
recording
• making a digital copy of a DVD to upload to a TAFE’s DTE in order to play to a
landscaping class
• compiling extracts of audio-visual material for use in class (eg making a compilation of
short extracts of several films for a photography class) when it is not possible to buy a
similar teaching resource.

13 May 2021
Technological Protection
Measure (TPM) exceptions
50
A lot of digital content is now protected by TPMs. TPMs prevent you from making further
copies or limits access to material.

• Statutory Text and Artistic Works Licence
• flexible dealing exception in section 200AB
• organisational disability exception in section 113F
• fair dealing for disability exception in section 113E.

instruction they may be able to rely on the flexible dealing exception (eg to prepare an
arrangement of a musical work for students to perform in a music class when you cannot
buy the arrangement you need). See Flexible Dealing Exception.
Disability access exceptions
• If you are copying or communicating musical works or sound recordings in order to make
them accessible to a student with a disability, you may be able to do this under the disability
exceptions (eg uploading a braille film score to a password protected DTE for a student with
a visual impairment, where the braille version is not available in a digital format). See
Disability Access Exceptions.

Music outside the
classroom

13 May 2021
Using music outside the TAFE
classroom (NSW, QLD, ACT, TAS)
74
From 1 January 2021, TAFEs in NSW, QLD, ACT and TAS can rely on the
TAFE Music Licence with APRA AMCOS, ARIA and PPCA to perform musical
works live (eg a live performance by a TAFE band) and use sound recordings in
different ways outside the classroom environment.

13 May 2021
75
For example, TAFEs can:
• perform/play a musical work live at TAFE events (eg a TAFE band playing live at a TAFE Open Day)
• play a sound recording at TAFE events (eg use recorded music in a TAFE fashion show)
• play a sound recording as background music in TAFE businesses (eg TAFE training restaurants,
fitness centres or cafes)
• play a sound recording as background music in TAFE workplaces (eg staff rooms, TAFE offices)
• incorporate a sound recording into another work (eg adding music to a PowerPoint presentation) to
show at an event
• record, communicate and live stream TAFE events at which a musical work is performed or sound
recording played.

13 May 2021
76
Recording your TAFE event
TAFEs can:
• record TAFE events that include the performance of a musical work live or a
sound recording
• authorise a third party (eg a professional videographer hired to film a TAFE
fashion show or graduation ceremony) to make a recording of a TAFE event on
its behalf.

13 May 2021
77
What can I do with the recording of our TAFE event?
TAFEs can use the recording of their TAFE event(s) in the following ways:
• upload it to the TAFE website and/or DTE
• upload it to educational apps being used for TAFE communications (eg Skillslocker)
• email a digital copy to the TAFE community (students and parents)
• provide a physical copy to the TAFE community (for example, on a USB device)
• upload it to the TAFE’s official social media page (although where a musical work or
sound recording is played at the TAFE event the post may still be taken down).

13 May 2021
78
Incorporating sound recordings into other works
TAFEs can incorporate a sound recording into another unrelated work (eg add a backing track to
a PowerPoint presentation or to a video of a graduation ceremony).
TAFEs can then:
• upload the recording to the TAFE website, password protected intranet or password protected
DTE
• email or provide a physical copy of the recording to students and their families
• upload the recording to an educational app (for example ‘SkillsLocker’).
Note, however, the TAFE cannot upload this work to social media.

13 May 2021
79
Live streaming your TAFE event
TAFEs can live stream events, where a musical work is performed live and/or a
sound recording is played, in real time from TAFE social media platforms (such as
Facebook or YouTube).
However, for live streams where a musical work or sound recording is being played
on social media, it is still possible that the performance may be blocked or muted.

13 May 2021
classroom (WA, SA, NT)
80
• TAFEs in WA, SA and NT are not currently covered under the new TAFE Music Licence.
• If TAFEs in these jurisdictions want to use music in ways not covered by the exceptions in the Copyright Act,
they will need to obtain specific licences from OneMusic (APRA AMCOS and PPCA) or directly from the
copyright owner, or use music from other resources.
• For example, you would need to obtain licences to play music at:
o fashion shows, open days or graduation ceremonies
o TAFE businesses such as fitness centres, restaurants and hair salons
o TAFE corporate areas (eg staff rooms, reception areas)
o telephone on hold music.
• It is a good idea for TAFEs to contact their local copyright manager to see if their TAFE has OneMusic licences
in place for these activities.

13 May 2021

81
There may be instances where TAFEs in these jurisdictions can use alternative
sources of music such as:
• free music available under Creative Commons licences or
• alternative music licences to those offered by OneMusic (eg Audio Network,
Visual Sounds and Music on Hold).

TAFEs in all jurisdictions can use CC musicals works and sound recordings free of charge provided you comply with
the terms of the CC licence.
There are several websites that license musical works and sound recordings under a CC licence, including:
• SoundCloud – online sharing platform with option to filter search results for CC content
• Vimeo – online community with option to search for CC content
• CC Mixter – CC sound remix tool and archive
• Op Sound – CC music archive
• Magnatune – CC Record label
• Jamendo – CC music distribution site

Case study 1 – Text and
artistic works
85
Josie, a social work teacher, is preparing a teaching resource. She:
1. photocopies pages from a textbook to hand out to students in her class
2. uploads a list of website links to the TAFE LMS for her students to access
3. downloads an image from the internet to include in a PowerPoint presentation
4. scans and uploads to the TAFE LMS an entire teaching manual that is
commercially available
5. bookmarks a webpage to later display live in the classroom.
Is Josie allowed to do each of the activities? If yes, are there any restrictions on how she
can use it (eg consider copying limits, labelling requirements)?

13 May 2021
Case study 2 – Films, videos
and broadcasts
86
Samantha is a librarian who has been asked by teachers in her TAFE if they are allowed to:
1. create a teaching resource that includes YouTube clips
2. make a digital version of a DVD and upload that to the TAFE LMS when a digital version is not
commercially available
3. upload two minutes of a film onto the TAFE LMS and provide students access to it for use in an online
exam, when the film is commercially available on Google Play
4. access copy broadcasts on ClickView, download these and then upload them to the TAFE’s LMS
5. record a copy broadcast of a free-to-air TV program to play it to the class.
What should Samantha tell them? Are these activities covered by a licence or exception? If so, please
specify which. Are there any other restrictions?

Commercial
Activities and
Seeking Permission

13 May 2021
Commercial activities
89
1. Can TAFEs sell materials created under the Statutory Text and Artistic Works Licence?
A TAFE is permitted to rely on the Statutory Text and Artistic Works Licence, provided the materials
copied are provided at no more than cost - the sale price only covers the physical production of the
materials and/or other direct costs, and does not include a profit margin.
2. Can TAFEs rely on the Statutory Text and Artistic Works Licence to copy materials, which are
provided at cost, when delivering a professional development course for a commercial client?
Yes, provided the materials copied are provided at no more than cost - the sale price only covers the
physical production of the materials and/or other direct costs, and does not include a profit margin.

13 May 2021
90
3. Can TAFEs rely on the Statutory Text and Artistic Works Licence in preparing course materials
for ‘hobby courses’ and non-accredited courses?
Yes, as long as the courses are provided as part of the TAFE institute’s educational purposes and the
materials are provided at no more than cost.
4. Can TAFEs rely on the Statutory Text and Artistic Works Licence to copy class materials for
TAFE students based in other countries, where course delivery takes place overseas?
It does not make a difference where the course is delivered (eg at the campus or at an external location)
or whether the students are taught by staff of the TAFE institute or by local teachers overseas. TAFEs can
rely on the Statutory Text and Artistic Works Licence so long as:
• the students are undertaking a course conducted by the Australian TAFE institute
• any print materials are copied in Australia, and digital materials are stored and uploaded to a server
from Australia.

13 May 2021
91
5. Can TAFEs rely on the Statutory Text and Artistic Works Licence in preparing course materials
for a mainstream course if there are full paying students undertaking the course?
Yes, as long as the courses are provided as part of the TAFE institute’s educational purposes and the
materials are provided at no more than cost.
6. Can TAFEs provide for a fee, course materials which include content copied under the Statutory
Text and Artistic Works Licence to another TAFE institute in another jurisdiction or a commercial
entity (eg for in-house training)?
Material copied under the Statutory Text and Artistic Works Licence can only be provided to another TAFE
if the materials are provided at no more than cost.
However the materials could not be supplied to a commercial entity for use in an in-house training.

13 May 2021
92
7. If content is available under a ‘non-commercial only’ Creative Commons licence, does this allow a TAFE
to use it in course materials for courses where students are charged more than the actual cost of producing
the resources?
No, as the materials are being supplied for financial profit.
8. Where a TAFE and a private RTO share delivery of a course, can educational Statutory Text and Artistic
Works Licence materials be used in the course materials?
Yes, provided the course is provided by the TAFE institute and the materials are provided at no more than cost.
9. Where a TAFE offers vocational courses to school students, can the course materials incorporate
educational Statutory Text and Artistic Works Licence materials?
Yes, provided the course materials that include the Statutory Text and Artistic Works Licence material are free or
sold at cost.
For more information, see https://smartcopying.edu.au/faqs/commercial-activities-in-tafe/.

13 May 2021
Seeking permission Consent from students
TAFE institutes only need to seek permission from the
copyright owner when:
• they are not able to rely on a statutory or voluntary
licence or educational use exception to use material
in the way they intend (eg if uploading a resource to a
public TAFE website)
• the material is not licensed under Creative
Commons.
To seek permission, you will need to:
• figure out who the copyright owner is
• write/email them to seek permission.
Consent is required from a student (or their guardian) if a
TAFE is using material created by students and/or using
photos or videos of students internally (eg on a password
protected digital teaching environment (DTE) or classroom)
or externally (eg on the TAFE website or social media
platforms such as Facebook or YouTube):
• in class activities
• in documents, newsletters, displays, journals,
professional development materials used internally or
externally
• as part of marketing materials for the TAFE (eg an
information booklet, poster or on the TAFE website).
For information about when permission is required and sample permission requests, see
https://smartcopying.edu.au/guidelines/permissions-and-consents/.

Licensing your learning
resources under CC

13 May 2021
Applying a CC licence to your
learning resources
122
• TAFEs are encouraged to use CC licensed resources as well as licence
learning resources they create under CC, where possible.
• This is because teachers can do more with CC licensed material and it is
free to access, use, modify and share.
• For more information on how to do this, see
https://smartcopying.edu.au/applying-a-creative-commons-licence/.

Adding a CC licence to your
learning resources
123
1. Issues and concerns around licensing TAFE learning resources under CC:
o improper attribution of TAFE owned materials
o competition between education providers.
2. Possible solutions to these issues and concerns:
o be very clear with your attribution requirements. Attribution is a condition of
all CC licences.
o consider the SA licence.
3. Get in touch with the NCU for additional guidance and help.

13 May 2021
Which CC licence?
124
• CC BY is recommended where you are happy with anyone using your material as it
allows for the greatest possible reuse of licensed material provided you attribute the
material.
• CC BY SA (Share Alike) if you have some concerns about how your material will be
used, CC BY SA is recommended. This licence allows others to use the material in a
new resource provided the new resource is made available under the same licence.
Selling content for cost recovery or commercial purposes is allowed under this licence.
• CC BY NC SA (Non-Commercial, Share Alike) is recommended if you do not wish for
your material to be used for profit. Under this licence, any new material using your
material cannot be sold for commercial purposes and in addition the new material must
be made available under the same licence.

13 May 2021
Adding a CC licence to learning
resources
125
To license a learning resource that you’ve created under CC, all you have to do is:
1. choose your CC licence: https://creativecommons.org/choose/
2. copy the CC licence icon
3. paste the icon onto the resource along with the attribution information and/or any
other notice you would like to include and
4. include a copyright statement on the resource to reflect the CC licence.
All Creative Commons Licence icons, can be found on the Creative Commons Licence
Chooser website: https://creativecommons.org/choose/.

13 May 2021
Then include a copyright statement on your resource. Here’s some examples:
• © NSW Technical and Further Education Commission (TAFE NSW) – [Agency name], 2020.
Except as otherwise noted, this [insert learning resource title] is licensed under the Creative
Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International Licence. To view a copy of this licence, visit

Third party content
127
• You cannot apply a Creative Commons licence to third party content as you
do not have the rights.
• For all third party content, you must prominently mark or indicate in a notice
that this content is excluded from the Creative Commons licence.
• Learning resources that include third party content cannot go on a public
website. Must be password protected.
https://smartcopying.edu.au/how-to-label-third-party-content-in-creative-commons-licensed-material/

13 May 2021
How to label third party content
128
There is no single correct way to label third party content, and different situations may
require more or less complicated notices and marking.
There are 2 often used mechanisms:
1. Giving a notice next to third party content: this involves marking or notating all
third party content. To do this you should indicate directly underneath the content.
Or
2. Giving a general notice listing all third party content: this involves giving a
general notice that identifies all third party content. This notice would usually be
included in your terms of use or copyright statement for a website or in the verso page
or bibliography for a work.

Label – always attribute the source.
• All material created and used for educational purposes should
be properly attributed.
• Attributing is important to ensure that we don't pay licence fees
for material we already own or are allowed to use – eg TAFE
created content.
• Attribution should include details of:
o the copyright owner and/or author
o where the material was sourced from
o when it was sourced.

Limit – ensure access to material is
limited to the relevant staff/students only
• Once material is communicated to an entire
TAFE/campus or jurisdiction, the risk of copyright
infringement increases.
• Collecting societies believe that the value of content
increases with the number of people who can access it.
• Limiting access is important for cost and risk
management.

Clear out material that is no
longer required
• Clearing out material as soon as
possible when it is no longer
required is one practical way of
managing copyright risk and costs.

Australian school and TAFE teachers and librarians
