Well week three is coming to an end and let me tell you I think this has been the hardest week of all, thus far. Last week, I thought was time consuming as I had to create the animated video and as a perfectionist I spent a lot of time creating it and perfecting it. However, this week, it was purely tough as it had us focus on intellectual property law and that is something I have a hard time comprehending so I’ve had to read and read the material several times to ensure I grasped what was being said. Actually, I understand the concept of what it is and why we have it but to really understand how it works is the difficult part. So, I’ve approached this week with a growth mindset, I know I will persevere and concur! Copyright laws have been put in place to promote the growth of the arts and other creative works. It is to safeguard those authors and artists who are finding themselves especially with the internet in today’s digital world. A lot of people feel that anything on the internet is a free for all, but in reality it isn’t and we need to understand that and as educators we need to ensure that our students understand that also. When we find someone’s work that we want to use we need to do the following. First, check who owns it and get permission to use it. Either cite the creator or buy the rights to use it, if necessary, and use it responsibly (Common Sense Education, 2014). If you do all of these than you are not stealing and what you are doing is lawful. Fair Use is when you use a portion of someone’s work and reproduce it without getting permission or paying for it. There are only a few instances that fair use applies and they are for schoolwork and education, news reports, criticism or commentary, and comedy or imitation. A rule of thumb on measuring fair use analysis is to use what they call the “four factors”. The four factors are the nature of the use, the nature of the work used, the extent of the use, and its economic effect (Association of Research Libraries, 2012). . Keep in mind that these are just methods to help analyze usage but each situation should be looked at individually to determine reasoning or why a new use populates. Public Domain work is not protected by intellectual property laws (copyright, trademark, or patent law) and is free to use by anyone without having to obtain permissions. This is a great concept especially for teachers when they are teaching their students about intellectual property laws. They can teach their students the various laws and then show them how to find public domain materials to use in their class projects. It is good to have students only seek public domain materials so they do not need to worry about copyright infringement. Copyright infringement is when someone’s copyrighted work is used without their permission. So having a public domain is a free zone for our students when they are doing assignments or projects. This week’s focus on the law of digital citizenship was a bit tough and I still may not be an expert on the various intellectual property laws, but I can say that I know a lot more than I did a week ago. It is great to learn new things and have a feeling of growth. References
