My understanding of copyright has grown tremendously after taking this module. I was not aware of what was or was not approriate to use. I did not think the students should simply "take things" off of the internet, but did not have factual information regarding the topic. Since we are able to access the internet so easily, this unit was eye opening and very valuable. I will now instruct students to use the AEA online site as the material has already "passed" the copyright standards. If a student does use Googe, I will advise them to do an Advanced Search and then creative commons. I also think that this unit should be taught to the students so they have a comprehensive understanding of copyright. A good practical rule of thumb is to ask yourself, is the use of the material "fair" to the creator and to utilize the 10% rule when in doubt.
