I learned alot about copyright that I did not know. For example: I did not know that sometimes it was ok for educators to use copyrighted material without violating copyright laws. I knew that copyrighted material was often used but I didn't know that it was within legal means. I didn't know about the copyright fair use in which it gives leeway to educators.I never heard of the creative commons until this module. I did not know that there were different rules for what was on the Iowa AEA Online verses the general web. This course taught me alot about the copyright laws and what is ok to do and what isn't ok to do.I really don't have any changes in what I will do as far as copyright goes because I really don't deal with it as a substitute teacher. But if I was a regular teacher I would be more careful in my selections of what to use for my class to make sure I didn't violate any copyright laws. And I would make sure my students knew to be careful also and not to use copyrighted materials without proper permission.
