Occurs when a copyrighted work is reproduced, distributed, performed or publicly displayed without the permission of the copyright holder or the legal right to do so.
Commercial Purposes
A use in connection with a business, usually for profit.
Public Domain
Creative work that’s not protected by copyright and is therefore free for one to use however one wants. NOTE: In Canada, the copyright for a work usually expires 50 years after the death of the creator. There are exceptions based on the type of work, who owns it and if it was published. To check whether a work is in the Public Domain, consult: http://copyright.ubc.ca/guidelines-and-resources/support-guides/public-domain/
Fair Dealing
(Fair Use)
The ability to use a small amount of someone’s creative work without permission, but only in certain ways. (Fair Dealing is the term used in Canada, Fair Use in the U.S.)
Fair Dealing - When can you use material without asking for permission?
The purpose of the proposed copying, including whether it is for: research, private study, education, satire, parody, criticism, review or news reporting;
The character of the proposed copying, including whether it involves single or multiple copies, and whether the copy is destroyed after it is used for its specific intended purpose;
The amount of the dealing from the individual user’s perspective, including the proportion of the Work that is proposed to be copied and the importance of that excerpt in relation to the whole Work;
Alternatives to copying the Work, including whether there is a non-copyrighted equivalent available;
The nature of the Work, including whether it is published or unpublished; and
(Note: this may vary from Fair Use in the U.S. Each country has its own set of laws.)
(Note: Weird Al gets permission even though he doesn't have to. Most musicians like his parodies.)
Satire
The use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's silliness or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues. http://quietube7.com/v.php/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cvkpo2bpQT4 *link broken; any Jon Stewart or John Oliver clip, as long as it's checked, first.
Plagiarism
The practice of taking someone else's work or ideas and passing them off as one's own, or of neglecting to give credit to the creator.
Creative Commons
A kind of copyright that makes it easy for people to copy, share, and build on someone’s creative work in the way specified by the creator. Please go to Creative Commons for details.
Copyright-free
Some sites also specify that they are Copyright-free or have copyright-free sections. One example is https://www.morguefile.com/ which is an image-sharing website. Wikipedia Commons is another.
So why do we use work at school without asking permission?
Because there are times when you don’t need permission from the creator.
* Note: asking permission to use material is different from giving credit to the author.
Even if a work is copyright-free, you STILL need to give credit.
Consider
What online (and print) material do you share and use?
What materials do you create?
How would you feel if someone used your work without permission? Changed your work without permission?
(You can refer to the Google Doc, if you created one)
Activity: Write 3 rules
Think of 3 steps that you need to take to check if you have permission to use creative work.
We will be using these rules to create Success Criteria for your ethical use of those materials.
Please write them down on today's handout. Then hand it in to Mrs. Train.
