COPYRIGHT RULES TO REMEMBER:
- Just because you found it online, doesn’t mean it’s free to use (even if you’re a teacher or student).
- There are a lot of resources you can use freely including work that has a Creative Commons license or is in the public domain.
- You have a right as a creator to have your work protected from copying and you can also give your own content a Creative Commons license.
- If in doubt about using content, ask the creator for permission, find a free alternative, purchase an alternative, or make your own material.
- Instead of looking for loopholes, consider whether you’re being the most responsible and ethical digital citizen you can be.
