This last week, actually two weeks, has been awesome. We have learned a great deal involving copyright law, ethics and security to children while on the internet at school/library. These are great topics that really give teachers valuable resources to help students learn how be safe while on the internet.
Personally, I believe teachers go through copyright pretty regularly but may not understand all aspects. For example, last year we had a teacher create a power point on Black History Month and wanted to display it over our CCTV (Closed Circuit TV). She had to add music it the presentation and she wanted to simply get tracks from current CDs. Luckily we were able to help her find public domain music to add to the presentation and informed her that she needed to site the sources of her project. She had no idea about the music and was happy that we helped.
