This includes literary works, dramatic works, choreographic works, motion pictures, architecture, and visual art. The owner of the copyright is usually the creator, but ownership can be sold, traded, or inherited by another. Copyrighted works cannot be used by others without permission. Copyright protects creators from loss of income from their works and ensures that they are credited. ]]> 2023-02-21 15:57:41 UTC https://padlet.com/graceannecox444/fetvmwsikf6wfjzl/wish/2489917023 graceannecox444 https://padlet.com/graceannecox444/fetvmwsikf6wfjzl/wish/2489919104 Fair Use is a concept within US Copyright Law that permits the usage of excerpts from or the entirety of copyrighted works without the copyright holder's permission for the uses of criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, or research. Fair Use is an important aspect of Copyright Law, as it makes sure that copyrighted works can be used under certain circumstances without having to gain permission. For example, if a journalist was writing a criticism piece on a short story, it would be unlikely that the author would give permission to use the work for such purposes. Fair Use is the middle ground which protects creators, but does not exclude the work from criticism and other limited uses. ]]> 2023-02-21 15:59:14 UTC https://padlet.com/graceannecox444/fetvmwsikf6wfjzl/wish/2489919104 graceannecox444 https://padlet.com/graceannecox444/fetvmwsikf6wfjzl/wish/2489919600 Creative Commons is a system based on copyright (see similarities within logos) that aims to give more options to creators who wish to share their work with others. It is not the same as Copyright, but is a license that is applied to a copyrighted work. ]]> 2023-02-21 15:59:37 UTC https://padlet.com/graceannecox444/fetvmwsikf6wfjzl/wish/2489919600 graceannecox444 https://padlet.com/graceannecox444/fetvmwsikf6wfjzl/wish/2489919983 Attribution is the practice of citation, which is a practice that gives credit to the authors or creators of a referenced work. Attribution is important in the avoidance of plagiarism and the violation of copyright. ]]> 2023-02-21 15:59:54 UTC https://padlet.com/graceannecox444/fetvmwsikf6wfjzl/wish/2489919983 graceannecox444 https://padlet.com/graceannecox444/fetvmwsikf6wfjzl/wish/2489935038 When developing learning materials, it is important to make sure the creators of the references used are credited when necessary. However, because of Fair Use laws, educators are able to use copyrighted works without fear of retribution. Attribution also helps students to know where the information is coming from, and helps instructors to ensure that their sources are legitimate. ]]> 2023-02-21 16:10:09 UTC https://padlet.com/graceannecox444/fetvmwsikf6wfjzl/wish/2489935038 graceannecox444 https://padlet.com/graceannecox444/fetvmwsikf6wfjzl/wish/2489935793 Because I want to become a middle school teacher, these concepts are important as middle school tends to be where students are expected to write reports with bibliographies and citation. Using the information learned in this module can assist in teaching these concepts, along with making sure that copyright violations do not occur while creating lessons and that the creators of works are credited. ]]> 2023-02-21 16:10:42 UTC https://padlet.com/graceannecox444/fetvmwsikf6wfjzl/wish/2489935793
