Thing #23

The site called Learning 2.0 - 23 Things for Teachers was created from Stephen Abram's 43 Things.

Although our Librarian has discussed fair use many times at the beginning of each school year, I found the video quite informative. I know that getting permission is very important. It is not that difficult for certain items. I created a 20th wedding anniversary CD and needed to use the song that was song. Because I did not have the singer's rendition, I needed the original song. So I contacted the studio. Once they found out it was not for commerical use and only going to be on 1 CD, they gave permission.

It is easy for some teachers to justify their copies. But doing what is right is right.
