Copyrights

Personal copies of a periodical may be placed on reserve and a copy may be made of a single article for reserve in a library for educational use. An original periodical may be used and redistributed for the lifetime of the periodical. A copy may only be used for the term or section of the lesson (Copyright Applies to Everyone). Names cannot be copyrighted the user only owns a word or name in a specific context. For example if a company is named Funny Bakery, they only have authority to use that name as a bakery (10 Big Myths About Copyrights). Also from the “10 Big Myths About Copyrights”, I learned that almost all things are copyrighted the moment they are written or made and not necessarily published. Thoughts and ideas are not copyrighted, but once an object is made from the idea it is then copyrighted and a person can be punished even if there is no notice of copyright on the page or object. Not all Satellite or Cable programming is copyrighted. Creators can copyright a show or establish specific rights for educators use. The best method to determine what you can use in a classroom is to contact the provider and they will have a list as to what channels or shows have extended rights to educators (Copyright Applies to Everyone). As my teaching goes I plan to provide the children with the knowledge to link websites as sources and teach them not to copyright. I will be teaching younger students so I do not foresee a major issue with copyrighting, but I plan to take action if the need arises.
