This is a course for educators who want to learn about US copyright law in the education context. P2PU also offers a similar courses for Australia, if that content is more appropriate. Educators who are not in the US are welcome to sign up, too, if they want to learn about copyright law in the US.
The course is taught around practical case studies faced by teachers when using copyright material in their day-to-day teaching. By answering the case scenarios and drafting and discussing the answers in groups, you and other participants will learn:
- What is the public domain?
- What does copyright law protect?
- What is fair use?
- What other exceptions are there in copyright law?
- What are open access educational resources?
By the end of this course, you should be able to:
- Understand the basic concepts of copyright law;
- Identify copyright issues in education;
- Understand when fair use or other copyright exceptions apply to teacher, librarian, or student use of copyrighted content; and
- Strategize and talk with your students, peers, and administrators about how to use copyright exceptions in education.
