COPYRIGHT IN THE CLASSROOM
The Copyright Consortium of the Council of Minister of Education, Canada (CMEC), has developed an on-line presentation on the use of copyright-protected materials in the classroom. (see above)
While teachers have new opportunities to use copyright protected materials in their lessons, there are limits to what can be copied and communicated in the classroom. What can teachers do (and not do) with the copyright-protected works of others? The presentation provides an overview of the new "Fair Dealing Guidelines" and of "Copyright Matters!" (It also provides principals, teachers, and staff with compliance measures for use in their schools.)
