Educ512 copyright

I just took the copyright quiz and scored a 71. I couldn't believe what a complicated issue this was. I have heard about it on the news over the years, but never really paid much attention to it. After seeing how much technology has advanced and how anyone with a computer, Ipod or or other device that can record, rip info from the internet can be disregarding the Copy Right laws. I really wonder how much is happening in the classroom that the teacher or students just don't know. I think there should be a Copy Right Bill or Rights posted in every classroom as well as every computer class teacher should be giving advice to the school staff. I think I will be in a world of hurt by the time I start teaching on a very blurry tech atmosphere. This is a topic that should be discussed by all districts and teacher. Very interesting. I enjoyed the article and the questions from the quiz.

  1. LOL, you are so right, Francis. This is an area of great confusion and very little knowledge. In most districts and schools there is much confusion about this but many abuses. The fact that you have had this exposure is excellent. Congrats on doing so well on the quiz! I'm glad you enjoyed the article, Hall loves this topic and has been quite an expert for a long while.
