I like this site for educating about US Copyright. It also has a nice list of public domain sources.

The importance of intellectual talent to achievement in all professional domains is well established, but less is known about other individual differences that predict success. The authors tested the importance of 1noncognitive trait: grit. Drive and energy in childhood are more predictive of success, if not creativity, than is IQ or some other more domain-specific ability" (p. 293)

Historical public domain images.

Great group of public domain images.

"The short answer to that question is that no, a person should never publish a poem on one's own blog/site that's not in the public domain unless permission has been secured (and is included in the post). The true answer is the one you've discovered for yourself -- people do it all the time. The grey space between the short answer and the true answer is the digital citizenship that many Poetry Friday bloggers try to teach by example. If we can't get permission for the poem, we post part of it and link to the site where we found it. Or we link to the book it is from, so that our reproduction of the poem is a form of advertising for the author."

We like to use real life images when possible but for those times when you can't find image or you want an icon, you could try this clip art library - The Open Clipart Library is the largest collaboration community that creates, shares and remixes clipart. All clipart is released to the public domain and may be used in any project for free and with no restrictions.

Some good teaching videos here - much of which is for free download.
