Week 2 - Wimba Session-Copy Right Issues

This week's archived Wimba was very informative.   There were lots of copyright issues explained.
Fair Use.....Fair Use..........
Dr. JBB made sure we knew what copyright means. The author has exclusive rights as long as he/she lives plus 70 years.   As a teacher, lots of music is used in teaching standards in the classroom.  I was a little hesitant when our instructor started talking about all the copyright issues.  Have I been a part of wrong doing?   Fair Use -to trademarks, it is a lot to know.  The best take for me was this statement "If you cannot teach the unit without including the media, then it might qualify for use".
