Technology and Learning’s Online Educator’s Guide
to Copyright and Fair Use

From this site I was able to print a very attractive two page poster on Copyright and Fair Use Guidelines for Teachers. Guidelines were listed for printed materials, illustrations, video, music, internet, and television. Main headings included specifics, what you can do, and the fine print.

Included was a quizz regarding copyright and fair use. This had some very difficult situations that could occur and how to handle it.

Also, available at this web site were assessments to buy to check the Computer Literacy of children. Eighth grade children were to be computer literate by the Year 2006 they stated. Now in Arizona and in North Carolina children are being assessed for their computer knowledge. Some samples of the type of test questions were given. These questions included multiple choice and then actually doing an activity that was listed. Expectations were listed for the eighth grade students in Computer Literacy.

This was a helpful site.
