Appendix A in design document).
What is Copyright?
• Laws have been created to protect authors and artists that create things that are creative and “original.”
• If someone produces something that is original – no one else has created anything quite like it – then that person is the only one who can copy it, perform it in public, or publish it, unless he/she gives that permission to someone else.

• Referred to as DMCA
DMCA Part 1
• The "Treaties" section • Extends US copyright law to cover countries
that signed the WIPO treaty as part of writing the DMCA
• Now illegal to circumvent technical measures to prevent copyright infringement (both accessing and copying) o This is where DRM issues are present
DMCA Part 2

hosting sites (AT&T, YouTube, etc) from being prosecuted if they have made reasonable efforts to remove copyrighted material.
DMCA Parts 3-5
• Part 3: Temporary copies of copyrighted material can be made for purposes of repair
• Part 4: Internet radio channels and other streaming audio must pay royalties to copyright holders.
• Part 5: Boat vessel hull designs are now protected by copyright.
TEACH Act
• 2002 law that governs the way copyrighted material can be used in distance education
• Educators are only protected by the TEACH act if they work for an accredited institution
• Only modifies a few parts of copyright law; the fair use clause is still in effect.
TEACH Act: What can teachers do?
• Display nearly all types of works • Now there is no restriction on a recipient’s
location • Retention and student access for the length
of the class session • Allows the copying and storage of materials
when necessary for digital transmission to students
• Allows print works to be digitized if used for a limited time and not available by other means to the institution.

students, faculty, and staff • Provide notice to students when materials may be
subject to copyright protection • Limit the transmission of educational content to enrolled
students • Prevent the storage of materials where that they are
accessible to anyone besides enrolled students • Prevent the retention of materials by students for
periods longer than the "class session" • Prevent the dissemination of materials
Fair Use
Educators and students get a break with the "Fair Use" clause in copyright law.
What is "Fair Use"
Fair Use is part of the copyright law. It allows people to use and make copies of copyrighted works without getting permission if they are using them for: • criticism • comment • news reporting • teaching • scholarship • research
How do I know if it is "Fair Use?"
Ask yourself these 4 questions: 1. What is the PURPOSE? 2. What is the NATURE? 3. What is the EFFECT? 4. What is the AMOUNT
Basically if the answers aren't educational, mostly factual and important to education, none, and just a little bit you could be in TROUBLE!
Fair Use: Purpose
• Acceptable o Teaching, Research, News Reporting
• Illegal o Making money from the sale of the work o Using without giving credit to the author
Fair Use: Nature
• Acceptable o Mostly factual o Important to education
• Illegal o Creative works such as art, music, fiction
Fair Use: Effect
• Acceptable o No major effect o User owns a legal copy of work
• Illegal o Could replace selling of the original o Made available of the web
Fair Use: Amount
• Acceptable o Small bit o Portion not critical to entire work
• Illegal o Large parts or entire work used o Part used is crucial to success
SO.......how much exactly CAN I use?
Fair Use: What can we use?
