The general and incorrect notion is that anything that is on the Internet is Public Domain and may be taken without permission from the owner/creator. THIS IS FALSE. Some sites contain information, pictures, etc. that are ALL Public Domain. Even though we don’t have to ask permission, we still must provide information about the source.
Fair Use is a special exception to the copyright laws for students, teachers, news reports and others.

Teachers and students are allowed, under Fair Use, to use copyrighted works without permission, but we must adhere to portion limitations.
