  I have learned alot about copyright after this course and feel pretty comfortable with when the use of material is appropriate and not.  But with that said, I still think my days of "Googling it" may be done! Well, for classroom resource use anyway!  After diving deeper into what is available through the AEA online resouces, I feel that what my students will need for the classroom is there, easy to access, and safe for them to find.  Often I find myself lead in different directions and finding inappropriate things while searching Google, and I am sure it happens to students as well, often with negative effects. AEA online recources are a safe way to get what we need.

If we/I do need to use Google, I now know how to search for resources with Creative Commons.  Also, I feel that it is very important to teach students the importance of Copyright as well.  Students are so used to the ease of internet searches and often feel that it is ok to use whatever they find.  I will be sharing with my students the information that I have learned about Copyrights, and give them the   tools to do safe searches through AEA online and other internet search options.
