11. What are some guidelines for educators to follow?

12. Copyright integrity We sow a thought and reap an act;We sow an act and reap a habit;We sow a habit and reap a character;We sow a character and reap a destiny. (Thackeray) Thackeray, William. (1987). Quoted in Building Character In the Pubic Schools. Leadership Reports. Alexandria, Virginia: National School Boards Assn. Easterling & Jay 2009

13. Guidelines to Remember Fair Use Guidelines does not extend to the World Wide Web (most of the time). Copyrighted items cannot be included in student projects published on the Web without the copyright holder’s permission. “Fair Use” does not mean “unlimited” use. Have a Fair Use chart to use as a reference when planning with a curriculum---More planning and checking early will result in less work or breaking the law later ! Easterling & Jay 2009

14. Guidelines to Remember ALWAYS--- Cite sources for the content you did not create under the Fair Use Guidelines AND require your students to do the same! ALWAYS--- Get written permission from the student and parents before posting anything on a website. *Important: Make permission notices specific for parents so they know exactly what is being posted. Easterling & Jay 2009

15. What can software & web designers do to help teachers use digital resources in ethical manner?

16. Software Designers Easterling & Jay 2009

17. Designers should let teachers know exactly how to cite their product to avoid breaking copyright laws. A list of appropriate situations or content areas would help teachers quickly evaluate the proper use of materials. Designers should use various Appropriate Use Policies from school districts….In other words, don’t create a program we can’t use! Easterling & Jay 2009

18. Make it easy for teachers to evaluate work as fair use. Include a fair use checklist that focuses on specific features included in the program. Include all materials and sources for teachers. List all copyrights and how to obtain additional copyrights in the classroom. Avoid designing software programs that do not allow for teachers or students to reproduce or manipulate parts of the program. Software can be designed and distributed as fair use programs.
