The Internet has put more and more materials at the fingertips of educators but sometimes we end up with sticky fingers and use materials that are restricted by copyright. How is an educator to know what they can use legitimately? This presentation will provide a brief but thorough overview of how copyright and fair use laws impact teachers and students in the K-12 environment. There will also be an introduction to the Creative Commons and other current movements to change the way in which Intellectual Property rights manage the free flow of ideas.
It is scheduled for Monday, January 22 at 3:30 PM, and is eligible for Act 48 credit.
To ease bandwidth issues and need for others to worry about technical arrangements, I am hosting this session at CADM (Administrative Offices for the Cumberland County Library System, located in Carlisle.)
If you wish to attend the CCLS viewing of this webinar, please complete the registration by January 10.
You are more than welcome to attend at your own library, but you will need to use your own equipment on your library's wireless Internet connection. To do that, register yourself using the PDE link.
