Copyright

Copyrights protect the original copy of the artists that created it. There wouldn't be any money made if there wasn't any copyright. As a poor student i feel that copyright is "dumb." But as a adult, copyright is necessary. As a teacher i would hope a lot of companies will be lenient to us. I would hate to have to go through a bunch of loops just to get a video to show in one class.

Copyright law provides educators with a separate set of rights in addition to fair use, to display (show) and perform (show or play) others' works in the classroom. These rights are in Section 110(1) of the Copyright Act and apply to any work, regardless of the medium

The TEACH Act expands the scope of educators' rights to perform and display works and to make the copies integral to such performances and displays for digital distance education, making the rights closer to those we have in face-to-face teaching.

Cross Curriculum

This is a great idea. Being able to use two different curriculum's would be really beneficial to the students. The students are learning an ability to debate and are learning about health. The students are also working in groups to help collaborate as a unit to learn teamwork skills. The students are basically learning ways of getting information. They found many different ways on how to retrieve information, through, internet and newspapers.

College vs. K-12

At the college level every point they made in this video are correct. The question is....is technology saving us? Not every choice there is was one that I will choose. We are finally given choices in college and sometimes we don't know what to do with it. The problem college students have is that we are given everything through out school and when we get to college we are asked to think for ourselves. The k-12 video showed us as teachers that we need to be open to the digital age. Teach the students the benefits of digital works, and how to used them effectively.
