What rights does copyright grant? • Right to reproduce the work • Right to prepare derivative works • Right to distribute copies • Right of public performance • Right of public display
Classroom use: What’s OK? Almost anything, if it is: • Part of the instructional program • Shown only by students and instructors to
students and instructors • In a physical classroom/education space • Students and instructors are in physical proximity
• A legitimate, legal copy with copyright notice intact
• Not used for entertainment or recreation
Can I record off TV?
• Yes, but all the previously-mentioned conditions must be met.
• Video must be shown within ten days of broadcast and destroyed within 45 days.
• Face-to-face classroom use only.
What’s not OK?
• “Ripping” a video or using any other technology for circumventing copy protection
• Creating a digital backup copy of an analog video (VHS, for example) if a digital copy is available for purchase.
How about distance & online classes?
TEACH Act (2002) permits digital transmission if: • Integral part of a single, typical class session. • Part of systematic, mediated instructional
activity. • At the direction of or under the actual
supervision of the instructor.
But there are limits: • Fair use (“reasonable and limited portions”) • Must be a legally-acquired copy (no “ripping”
or circumvention of DRM) • Transmission limited to students and
educators • Preclude retention of a usable copy as far as
possible (streamed vs. downloadable)
How about distance & online classes, con’t
• Actual damages • Profits • Statutory damages • Costs and attorney fees • Criminal liability • DMCA civil and criminal liability
What are the penalties?

Scenario #2
How can I use material from an episode of NOVA that I recorded last year?
Scenario #3
Can I show a DVD in the classroom even if I just checked it out from the library or rented it, or
do I have to own it?

Scenario #4
Can I show a bootleg video of a Grateful Dead show to my online class? How about in the
classroom? Can I make it available for download if it’s password-protected?
Creative Commons Basics
http://youtu.be/io3BrAQl3so
• An nonprofit corporation created to assist content creators in bypassing the restrictions of copyright: http://creativecommons.org/choose/
• A license you can get for your own work to ensure that it can be shared (or used by) others.
• Look for this CC in order to use work by others!
How Does It Work? …Creative Commons allows for “some rights reserved” • The creator gets to decide what those rights are rather than the law
• protects free exchange of knowledge and collaborative work • Gives control back to the creator to say “Yes. Use my work.”
Because copyright is all or nothing…
