For Teachers: The Difference between Fair Use and Copyright ~ Educational Technology an... - 0 views

  •  
    This helps teachers show how to show students decide what is fairly used and copyrighted.
  •  
    The content of this site are crucial to understanding the basics of using a resource appropriately and correctly. The legal implications of using information/resources in papers and such is important for developing writers to understand. The webpage defines copyright, copyright infringement, and more related topics. Distinctions between plagiarism and copyrighting are specified, as these are often confusing concepts for students. Properly citing sources simply proves for effective research. Students will continually write papers with borrowed info., reference things, and etc. that deal with using resources, so it is important to express the various components associated with citations. This resource could prompt discussion over the do's and don't's of using resources; for example, "What might you use an outside resource for?"

  • We are wired that way. A story, if broken down into the simplest form, is a connection of cause and effect. And that is exactly how we think.
  • Why does the format of a story, where events unfold one after the other, have such a profound impact on our learning?
  • A story can put your whole brain to work.
  • Exchange giving suggestions for telling stories
  • a story is the only way to activate parts in the brain so that a listener turns the story into their own idea and experience.
  • Write more persuasively—bring in stories from yourself or an expert
  • The next time you struggle with getting people on board with your projects and ideas, simply tell them a story, where the outcome is that doing what you had in mind is the best thing to do.
  • The simple story is more successful than the complicated one

    This website discusses the importance of storytelling when teaching new material to a class. We felt like when most people think of storytelling they only think of teaching in that method to younger kids but it can actually be beneficial to all ages. We thought this website had a lot of good reasons and facts as to why storytelling can be beneficial in the classroom.

    A good story can make or break a presentation, article, or conversation. But why is that? When Buffer co-founder Leo Widrich started to market his product through stories instead of benefits and bullet points, sign-ups went through the roof. Here he shares the science of why storytelling is so uniquely powerful.
