Ms. Nickie………..

1. What is the copyrighted material? Who owns it? 2. Does the use of the work fall under fair use

guidelines? Is the use transformational in nature? Can this be considered "educational" use?

3. What is your level of comfort helping with this event? Are there any changes or limits you might like to see that would make you more comfortable?

4. What are the MCPS guidelines to be considered?– What is the MPAA rating?– Is it evaluated and approved?

Change Consideration #3

Be prepared to answer questions when the law seems to make little sense, when a law is inconsequential, when a law is widely ignored, or when breaking the law may serve a higher moral purpose.

Change Consideration #4

Teach copyright from the point of view of the producer, as well as the consumer.
