BBT 10 - Assignment #1: Copyright and Copy-wrong

1. The Copyright Act provides that it is not copyright when dealing with work for the purposes of research, private study, criticism, review, news reporting, education, satire, and parody, provided the dealing is “fair.” 
2. Up to 10% of another persons work can be copied under fair dealings.
3. Copying multiple short excerpts from the same copyright-protected work is prohibited.
4. Any fee charged by the educational institution for communicating or copying another persons copyrighted work without permission. 
5. A teacher can copy in order to display a work protected by copyright. It allows the use of whiteboards and similar tools, overhead projection using a device like an LCD screen, opaque, or slide projector, provided the work is used for the purpose of education and training and is not already commercially available in a medium that is appropriate for this purpose.
6. Teachers are not permitted to make a large-print book for a student with a perceptual disability without permission from the copyright owner. 
7. Yes, you can play sound recordings and turn on televisions and radios in the classroom. As long as it takes place on the premises of an educational institution, it must be for educational or training purposes, it must not be for profit, it must take place before an audience consisting primarily of students of the educational institution, persons acting under its authority, or any person who is directly responsible for setting a curriculum for the educational institution, and it must not involve a “motive of gain.“
8. Yes, students can perform a play and/or musical that is copyrighted, under the same five conditions as those cited for playing sound recordings, listening to the radio, or watching television listed in the answer to the previous question must be met before this users’ right applies.
9. Schools cannot legally play music at their own dances and sporting events without getting permission because they are not permitted by the Copyright Act and therefore require permission and payment:.
10. They key questions to use when figuring out if video and music is legal by staff and students are: • Did the music use occur during school hours? Will the student be graded on the activity involving the music use?  Does the music use involve a demonstration by a student or teacher for other students, teachers, assessors, or parents?  Is it reasonable to consider the music use to be for educational purposes? The phrase “educational purposes” is not defined in the Copyright Act but can be described as an activity that is planned and where the objective is for students to meet one or more subject or program outcomes. Was the music used on school premises?  If admission was controlled, was it free? Was the music use for a non-profit purpose?
11. Students and teachers can use other's copyrighted and protected work to create NEW work under these conditions: It can only be used for non-commercial purposes. The original source must be mentioned, if it is reasonable to do so. The original work used to generate the content must have been acquired legally. The resulting user-generated content does not have a “substantial adverse effect” on the market for the original work.
12.  Teachers can rent or purchase an audiovisual from a retail store, a copy borrowed from the library, a copy borrowed from a friend, and a YouTube video. Showing movies from subscription services in the classroom is governed by the terms of the agreement between the subscriber and the subscription service

A legally obtained copy includes a copy purchased or rented from a retail store, a copy borrowed from the library, a copy borrowed from a friend, and a YouTube video.
14. Owners of legal copies of computer programs may make a single reproduction of these programs in only two situations: An owner of a legitimate copy of a computer program may backup one copy of that program and The person must be able to prove that the backup copy is erased as soon as he or she ceases to be the owner of the computer program from which the backup was made. AND an owner of a legitimate copy of a computer program may also make a single copy of that program by adapting, modifying, or converting the computer program or translating it into another computer language, as long as: the reproduction is essential for the compatibility of the program with a particular computer, the reproduction is solely for the person’s own use, and the copy is erased when the person ceases to be the owner of the copy of the program from which the copy was made.
15. Teachers and students can save, download, and share publicly available Internet materials, as well as use that material in the classroom and communicate it to other students.
