Description: On this week's podcast we have Thom Rickert the Vice President, Head of Marketing and Emerging Risk Specialist at Argo Group International. Listen in as Thom discusses copyright risks in education. Fair Use Doctrine Where it applies fair use is a right - not just a privilege. The Supreme court has pointed out, fair use keeps copyright from violating the first amendment with the internet and other technologies a clear understanding of fair use is more important today than ever before. Fair use is flexible, though it's not uncertain or it's not unreliable or for any particular field of creative activity. Legal system considers expectations in practice in assessing what is fair within the field and the use of copyrighted materials for a public purpose may be considered fair use and not a copyright violation. Educational Institutes Judges usually have four criteria when evaluating according to the law whether an education's use is fair use. How is the work being used? (For teaching or entertainment) What kind of work is being taught/shared? (Factual/informational or creative) How much of the work is being copied or used for substance? Is the owner of the work losing any economic status and/or the ability to continue publishing more work. For more insight and information on how as an educator you can be compliant to federal copyright laws and easy ways to implement them continue listening to this week's podcast.
