The module on copyright was very well done and informative. Some of the areas of copyright protection I was aware of, while others were a nice clarification of the rules. Copyright infringement is something that I have thought a lot about as a teacher, particularly with both printed sheet music and recorded music. So many students (and parents) think nothing of photocopying sheet music for personal use, not to mention copying recorded music. With so much technology easily accessible at our fingertips, it is easy to forget that just because something can be done does not mean it should be done. I need to work harder to teach my students to respect copyright laws and also how infringement of copyright effects the livelihood of others.
