2. Digital
technologies have
revolutionized how
creative works are
made, distributed,
and used.

3. Everyday we
(and our students)
use
movies
pictures
music

4. … and we all need to be
responsible users
of media and information!

5. Confused about copyright?
• Applies automatically to tangible works as
soon as they are created
• Works no longer protected under copyright
become part of the public domain, and do not
require permission for use
• Rules governing passage into public domain
vary quite a bit*
• Intended to promote sharing by protecting
rights of creators, but has become very
restrictive
*For more information about these rules, view Peter B. Hirtle’s chart “Copyright Term and the Public
Domain in the United States,” available via the Cornell Copyright Information Center under a
CC Attribution 3.0 License at http://copyright.cornell.edu/resources/publicdomain.cfm

6. What about fair use?

7. Fair use guidelines allow
for the use of portions of
protected materials for
educational purposes.
