Copyrights have changed so much over the years. I remember when I was a student in school, you were not able to copy anything. Now schools are permitted to make copies and use in the classroom. Back in the day, you really thought about making copies for new students coming in the middle of the school year. Most of the time the teachers did not make copies they just had to share a book with another student and the new one had to write their answers on paper. Now when a new student comes in the middle of something the teacher just makes a copy for the new student.
I did not realize that schools had permission to make and use copies from work of arts in the classroom. Now after reading the material presented in this course, I know how copyright rules have changed over the years. It makes it nice to be able to copy some material to use in the classroom.
Students do not have to worry so much about quoting which website they got their information from as much as in the past. They still need to state where they found their information, but it is easier to do this day and age.
