Educational Multimedia
Stan Diamond deg farrellyPennsylvania State University Arizona State University West
AECT Conference - Albuquerque - February, 1997
Intent of this presentation
Introduce the guidelines Provide basic background information on
their development Briefly identify permissible uses by
students and educators Outline portion limitations by format
Introduction
The guidelines seek to provide a roadmap for educators, scholars and students to follow when developing educational multimedia projects using portions of copyrighted works under fair use rather than by seeking permission
The guidelines represent:
participants' consensus of how to extend the scope of Fair Use to allow the creation of educational multimedia projects.
It is important to understand that:
these are only guidelines - if you feel you have greater freedom by applying fair use, you may do so.
uses that exceed these guidelines may or may not be fair use.
the more one exceeds these guidelines, the greater the risk that fair use does not apply.
Background on
Development of the Guidelines
Background
1992 - CCUMC convened the multimedia working group
Sept. 1994 - CONFU convened its first plenary session
CCUMC multimedia working group became the CONFU multimedia working group
Background
Aug. 1996 Multimedia working group completes negotiations on the Guidelines document.
Sept. 27, 1996 - Subcommittee on Courts and Intellectual Property, Committee on the Judiciary, U. S. House of Representatives issues a non-legislative report acknowledging the guidelines.
Applicability of the Guidelines
The guidelines apply to use:

Preparation of
Educational Multimedia
Using Portions
of Copyrighted Works
The Guidelines recognize different needs for students and educators.
Students
May incorporate portions of lawfully acquired copyrighted works when producing their own educational multimedia projects for a specific course.
Students
May perform and display their own projects in the course for which they were created.
May retain them in their own portfolios as examples of their academic work for later personal uses such as job and school interviews.
Educators
May incorporate portions of lawfully acquired copyrighted works when producing educational multimedia projects to support their teaching needs
Educators may present their projects in the following situations:
face-to-face instruction assigned to students for directed self-
study remote instruction (with limitations)
Educators:
May retain their projects indefinitely for the following purposes:
to perform or display in presentations to their peers, for example, at workshops and conferences.
to retain in their personal portfolios for personal uses such as promotion or job interviews.
Other Limitations
Other Limitations
Preparation and Use of projects created under these guidelines are subject to limitations of Time Portion Copying Distribution
Time Limitations - Educators
May use their projects for teaching, for a period of up to two years after the first instructional use with a class.
Instructional use beyond that time period requires permission for each copyrighted portion incorporated in the production.
Time Limitations - Students
Students may use their projects as previously noted:
Time Limitations - Students
Students may use their projects as previously noted: In the course for which the project was

academic work.
Portion Limitations
Portion Limitations:
Portion limitations:
The amount of a copyrighted work that can reasonably be used in a project regardless of the original medium from which the copyrighted works are taken.
Portion Limitations, Continued
Limits apply cumulatively to each project for the academic semester, cycle or term.

use exemption of the U.S. Copyright Law materials are included in accordance with the
multimedia fair use guidelines, and materials are restricted from further use.
Future Uses Beyond Fair Use
If there is a possibility that a project could result in broader dissemination, whether or not as a commercial product, individuals should take steps to obtain permissions during the development process rather than waiting until after completion of the project.
