This is an interesting article. Since my content area is business education, integrating technology in the classroom is a huge topic. As an educator, I have to know what is legal and illegal. Especially, when communicating copyright laws to the students. I think this article is a useful tool for educators to use in the classroom. I like how the article mentions that the rules that apply to students apply to teachers as well. We as educators have to abide by copyright laws just as students should. I also like the fact that this article outlines the guidelines that educators should follow in the classroom so that they can use as a reference.
