Copyright and Fair Use Copyright is the set of legal rights that authors have over their work. Fair Use allows limited copying of the author’s work without permission. This is appropriate to use if using a small piece of the author’s work to demonstrate or teach a lesson. http://www-sul.stanford.edu/cpyright.html

Plagiarism Plagiarism is: stealing someone’s work without giving credit to the original author not using appropriate quotation marks when using the author’s exact words giving incorrect information about the source of the quotation changing the words, but copying the sentence structure of the source without giving credit to the author http://www.plagiarism.org/plag_article_what_is_plagiarism.html

Safety on the Web How to keep students safe when using technology: www.googleimages.com As educators, we want to allow our students to use resources available to them, however, there are some precautions to remember when students are using the Web. Although school computers are monitored, students may have Internet access outside of school. The next slide will display some guidelines and reminders to share with students before and during their time on the Web.

Safety Guidelines www.googleimages.com Students never need to give out personal information. (name, birthday, age, etc.) Students need to stay away from Internet strangers. Students know not to talk to strangers face-to-face, but they need to apply this same knowledge on the Internet. Students should always tell their teacher and parents what sites they visit. Students should only visit appropriate sites for children. Students should not cyber bully or become the victim of a cyber bully. http://ikeepsafe.org/
