Copyright & Standards

Meaningful technology integration must be standards-driven, while teaching students the value of using and sharing information in a media-literate, copyright-friendly way. 

Copyright: Students and teachers should become familiar with copyright law and how and when to cite sources.  Below is a list of what I think are several of the best resources on the web about copyright.  Creative Commons is a good place to start helping students learn about copyright law.

• Citation Machine
• Copyright & Fair Use Guidelines from Stanford University
• Copyright Quiz
• Creative Commons
• Media Literacy
• Video about Copyright & Fair Use
• Videos about Creative Commons: "Wanna Work Together?" & "Get Creative"

Standards: Teachers should use State Standards, National Educational Technology Standards (NETS), and district technology benchmarks when planning technology integration. 

• NYS Learning Standards

• ISTE-NETS

  • Administrators

  • Students

  • Teachers
