Guidelines for Teachers
a limitation and exception to the exclusive right granted by copyright law to the author of a creative work, is a doctrine in United States copyright law that allows limited use of copyrighted material without acquiring permission from the rights holders. Examples of fair use include commentary, criticism, news reporting, research, teaching, library archiving and scholarship
The creator of any material has the right to decide who can make changes and use the original images/text
To copyright the work needs to be visible can’t just be “in your head”
Can’t just copy the information it needs to get cited correctly
Doctrine only existed in the U.S. as common law until it was incorporated into the Copyright Act of 1976
The owner of the local Blockbuster ®Video store supports the school by donating one videotape rental-free to the school every Friday. The video is shown in the multipurpose room to reward students with perfect attendance that week. It does improve attendance. This is fair use. True or false?
False. “Entertainment” and “reward” are
explicitly excluded under copyright guideline
A history teacher taped the original ABC
news report of Nixon leaving the White House after resigning. She made it at home on her personal VCR. She uses the entire news program
every year in her classroom. This is fair use. True or false?
False. The time has long passed when she should have asked permission or purchased the tape. Some options hold that a segment
would be more acceptable.
A school can only afford one copy of PowerPoint®. It is loaded onto the library computer and all students have access to this computer all day. The teachers copy and install the
PowerPoint®Viewer on their classroom computers to evaluate the student work. This is permissible. Fair Use applies. True or false?
True. The program itself is never in simultaneous use and the Viewer is intended for public distribution
