Copyright issues

It seems that teaching students about copyright issues isn't any different than it has been in the past, with the exception that we need to be sure they understand it pertains to information found on the computers, as well as other sources.  Training is ongoing, and even adults aren't always sure of the right protocal.  Helping students development the skills needed to restate information in their own way and how to look for a copyright before using photos and such, is imperative.  Also, helping them understand the reasons why this is important can create a respect for the copyright expectations.

I found some fabulous photos of the rainforest, which would give my students a detailed look at the animals living there. A great way to get up close and personal with a toucan and not get bitten.
