My understanding was pretty solid, but I had lots of missing pieces, and now that I have seen the specifics of the various points when laws were enacted, I'll be doing lots of digging for music that may have entered Public Domain, which I never fully understood. I often use music from the Choral Public Domain Library (
http://www2.cpdl.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page) and the Petrucci Music Library (
http://imslp.org/) but it never occurred to me that there could be more that I didn't know about. I also needed clarification about what constituted Classroom Use and the difference between that and Fair Use. The tutorial was very helpful in disambiguating those concepts for me.
I will be more purposeful in giving students guidance as they create their projects for me this coming year, especially in regard to what they use from their internet searches, and what music is used in their final products.
