Using the following websites I found some very helpful information concerning copyright and how it is used.The following types of works are protected by copyrights: Literary works; music and lyrics; dramatic works and music; pantomimes and choreographic works; photographs, graphics, paintings, and sculptural works; motion pictures and other audiovisual works; video games and computer software; audio recordings; and architectural works.Two things that students must do when they use portions of copyrighted material are give proper credit and citations. They must also include on the opening screen of their programs and on any printed materials that their presentation has been prepared under fair use exemption of the U.S. Copyright Law and are restricted from further use.
. Educators may claim fair use provided that they are: face to face curriculum based instruction, demonstrations of how to create multimedia productions, presented at conferences, remote instruction that is signal limited and kept for only two years.Fair use ends when the multimedia creator loses control of his product's use, such as when it is accessed by others over the internet. And we don't want that to happen!
