I learned during this course is that I have been stressing about this too much. Mostly because I did not know that there is more to the copyright laws than I know.  I didn’t realize that we, as educators, receive a little more leniency. I could remember one time, I was trying to find an appropriate video on YouTube that did not infringe on any copyright laws, but spent hours and hours just finding one video. But I learned from this course was about Classroom Use, TEACH Act, Fair Use, and Creative Commons. So the next time I am looking for an appropriate audio and visual resources, I can use the Iowa AEA Online website knowing that the resources are following the copyright laws. Also, if I do a google search, I will use the Advanced Search option and select Creative Commons. I feel better knowing more about the different copyright laws that I can provide my students with an enhanced lesson.
