Hey guys. In order to understand technological advances in the education system we need to take up an important issue and that would be copyright issues. When faced with the dilemma of whether to show a video in class or use a picture in a slide we must understand that there many be copyright implications that come along with it. As an educator it is important to know that we also need to follow the copyright rules or else we may find ourselves in some hot water. Many times we will want to show videos from YouTube in our classrooms in order to effectively show our students an example from the lesson we are teaching. However we must read all the fine print in order to see if we can really use this in a public setting such as a classroom. Many copyright rules will state that it would infringe on copyright rules if shown in a public setting such as your classroom. Here are some examples of how to effectively label images if taken from a website (in this case Flickr) in order not to infringe on copyright rules.
