If you teach with or about video, images, audio, digital or print
media, you'll want to attend this GiveMe5 Lab and networking event
designed for Rhode Island media educators. Media educators in K-12,
higher education, and from community organizations are all welcome!
Many students want to use copyrighted materials
(movies, videos, music, images, and print media) in their own creative
work, including in the development of student-produced videos, blogs,
podcasts, websites, and multimedia productions. Teachers also use
copyrighted materials in their teaching and in their own creative work.
Teachers and students both have rights and responsibilities under the
law--- do you know what they are?
Join Professor Renee Hobbs and the team of Harrington School of
Communication’s Media Education Lab to learn more about how copyright
and fair use affects your work. With the knowledge and skills you gain,
you will be able to know how to make a fair use determination to decide
when, how and how much of a copyrighted work you may use without payment
or permission.
