Copyright

A good, linear presentation. See FAQ section at end of tutorial.
Interactive
Guide To Using Copyrighted Media in Your Courses:
Baruch
College, City University of New York
Very helpful tutorial focused on what faculty need to know
to comply with coyright law as they use Audio, Images, and
Audiovisuals [video] in their teaching. Genuinely 'interactive'
and engaging, based on a nicely done approximation of a
NYC subway map. [Substitute Web-CT for Blackboard when taking
the tutorial; NOTE: At this time, the link to this site's
FAQs does NOT work.]
North
Carolina State University Copyright Tutorial
Take the first two tutorials: Copyright Ownership and Copyright
Use.
Excellent introduction to copyright
within the higher education environment. Covers the gamut
of copyright policies and procedures for North Carolina
State University, and for the most part these apply to our
situation at UNI. [When in doubt, check with the UNI Copyright
Committee!] Lots of text to read. Especially good treatment
of: "the academic exception"; "posting materials
found on the Internet"; "library exemptions";
"faculty-authored materials." Particularly good
explanation of "fair use."
A reminder: policies and procedures
cited in this tutorial may not be the same as those in effect
at UNI.
