    This past weekend I flew to Vietnam to spend two days with the Senior Management Team (SMT) of the British International School of Vietnam (BISVietnam). A two day retreat that focused on a future with technology and a 1:1 program. There are so many different ways to go 1:1 and in my opinion no one right way to do it.

    Parents, students, teachers and community members from more than 60 countries across the globe are coming together Wednesday to address the issue of adult and childhood illiteracy. But the focus isn't necessarily on new technologies, new teaching methods or millions of dollars in donations from private corporations to solve the problem, says Pam Allyn, executive director and founder of the international nonprofit LitWorld.

    OverDrive Hopes So "Don't just think public libraries, which have had challenging times with the financial downturn and fiscally stretched municipalities. Add to the picture K-12 school libraries, colleges and universities libraries, corporations, and institutions such as the military. And think international."

copyright fair use valenza

shared by beth gourley on 03 Apr 08 - Cached
  • copyright is designed not only to protect the rights of owners, but also to preserve the ability of users to promote creativity and innovation.
  • the critical test for fairness in terms of educational use of media is transformative use
  • adds value to, or repurposes materials for a use different from that for which it was originally intended, it will likely be considered transformative use; it will also likely be considered fair use
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • BGA filed suit against DK for copyright infringement.  The courts threw the case out, agreeing with DK's claim of fair use. The posters were originially created to promote concerts.  DK's new use of the art was designed to document events in historical and cultural context. The publisher added value in its use of the posters. And such use was transformative.
  • The fact that permission has been sought but not granted is irrelevant.  Permission is not necessary to satisfy fair use.
  • What is fair, because it is transformative, is fair regardless of place of use.
  • One use not likely to be fair, is the use of a music soundtrack merely as an aesthetic addition to a student video project.
  • adding value, engaging the music, reflecting, somehow commenting on.the music
  • photocopying a text book because it is not affordable is still not fair use

    a discussion to "develop a shared understanding of how copyright and fair use applies to the creative media work that our students create and our own use of copyrighted materials as educators, practitioners, advocates and curriculum developers."
  • beth gourley on 03 Apr 08
     
    This seems like an obvious share. An important discussion because it also opens more collaboration with colleagues. I have found that some colleagues want to avoid the gatekeeper because of the conservative nature of understanding copyright and fair use. This has been even more difficult while being in an international school.
