Fair Warning and Fair Use: Copyright and Plagiarism in the Digital Age
Changes in how education is provided, the easy availability of online resources, and the constant addition of new technologies create a confusing mixture of information on what copyright covers and why it matters to instructors. Digital learning and Open Educational Resources (OER) have increased the need for a clear understanding of what is free from copyright and what constitutes fair use. This webinar introduces instructors to the basics of copyright and how to apply copyright in a variety of classroom instructional settings, such as hybrid, blended, interactive, online, or face-to-face. A list of resources on copyright, digital learning, and copyright-free material is provided.
Learning Outcomes:
- Participants understand intellectual property, its history and importance, and how to implement good digital practices to protect themselves and their institutions.
- Participants are able to recognize copyrighted materials or those requiring attribution and those which are free to use without attribution or permission.
- Participants apply the methods they have learned to classroom settings (digital or face-to-face) and guide their students to practice good informational skills.
