Digital Stories Part 2

What?
This week we discussed and learned about copyright laws and how they will effect any work that we may do on our digital stories.

So What?
It is really important to know all copyright laws because if you use something that is copyrighted for a lesson within the classroom, you can get sued.  It is also helpful to know the Fair Use law as a teacher.  It takes a lot of worry away about whether or not something can be used in the classroom.

Now What?
I have never really known or understood copyright laws before and now that I do, I will be able to teach and discuss them with my students.  They will need to know these laws because they will most likely being using technology more than my generation has used it.
