Copyright+Laws+and+Fair+Use+Resources+for+Teachers

[|A Fair(y) Use Tale] This brilliant presentation created with snippets of Disney movies, explains copyright laws and fair use guidelines in a (albeit a bit choppy) entertaining way. And yes, it follows fair use guidelines because it is parody and education, uses minimal parts of several movies, transforms the original work into something entirely new, and has no impact on the Disney movie market. If you have 10 minutes or just a few, please take a look. It's worth it!

[|U.S. Copyright Office] Information about copyright laws right from the horses' mouth. It's a little wordy, but conveys the details of the laws in a readable manner.

[|Copyright Laws and Fair Use on the Web and in the Classroom] Google Presentation to explain copyright laws and fair use guidelines to teachers.

[|Copyright Links for Teachers] Created in conjunction with the above presentation, this hotlist provides teachers with more places to learn about copyright laws.

[|A Teacher's Guide to Fair Use and Copyright] A nice outline of fair use and copyright.

[|Stanford University: Copyright and Fair Use] This guide is readable and easy to understand.
