Digizen Badge - Copyright
This module has taught me that copyright is a policy put in place to protect the creative license of people who publish, create or share their own works. I always had a basic understanding of what copyright was but i didn't understand the terminology and the different subcategories under the copyright banner. One other thing i learned is how copyright laws are modified based on the intended use of the image, video, article etc.This activity has taught me that some images could have restrictions where people can share them as long as it is not for commercial use but other images may not have those restrictions. The most interesting thing I learned through this activity was the specific copyright laws that relate to teachers and what they can show in the classroom. The thing I feel is most important to teach my future students about copyright is that it is important to always give recognition to the original author. By failing to do so it is considered plagiarism and tarnishes the amazing resources that are out there in the creative community. I want my students to learn the importance of recognition of other's work so that in return others will respect the ownership they have over their own work.
