Acceptable Use  Teachers must take steps to ensure students’ acceptable use of technology.  Regardless of the ultimate rulings by legislators or courts, it will continue to be an educator’s professional and legal responsibility to stay aware of changes to the law and to model its application in his/her classroom.

20. Fair Use Guidelines Self-Test Fair Use ConsiderationAsk Yourself Purpose and character of useWhat is the intended use? Are you using it for educational purposes? Is the use noncommercial in nature? Nature of the copyrighted workWhat type of work is it? Is the work primarily factual in nature? Does the work contain relatively little creative or imaginative substance? Amount and sustainability of the portion usedHow much of the work do you intend to use? Effect of the use n the work’s marketabilityWhat impact does this kind of use have on the market for the work? Would the use substitute for purchasing the original? Would the use negatively affect the market potential of the original? ASK YOURSELF THESE QUESTIONS BEFORE USING COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL!
