When you think about all of the uses of images and sound in an educational setting, you have to also consider the copyright attributes and legal uses. This includes use by teachers in presentations and lesson planning, and student assignments such as graphic presentations on a computer or simply printing images for a poster board presentation. After our lesson today about attributes and the value of searching in Creative Commons, carefully answer the following question:
How would you attribute copyright to images and sound you located on the web and used in a lesson? What would you require of your students (if you teach a grade level that students would create presentations with images, sound, etc).

I would require a site or credit for the origin of the image.
My students are not old enough for presentations. So, I would use the copyright information on my class webpage for clipart and links.

This is so important and I am happy to learn all about how and what I should do. I also loved the presenttion about avatars and can't wait to use it. KM
I sometimes have students research a specific comet, and speak of the type of orbit (i.e., elliptical, hyperbolic, etc.) Often, they include a picture from the web. I will use what I learned today and have them give credit where due.

I would choose the Commons site because it is a relative safe site. My classroom students are too young to actually use these tools. If I were using images, I would definitely give credit to the original source.
My students are capable of recognizing the importance of citation and giving credit for work that is not their own. I would first encourage them to do the advanced search on images and/or sounds and see if they could find ones that were appropriate for their projects that had the attribution - noncommercial license. These would be easier to cite. Regardless of what my students used in their presentations, be it images, parts of songs, sounds, or video clips, I would require a bibliography with links back to the original works. LL
If I used a Creative Commons licensed work, I would attribute it to the auther, including any other information available. If my students used a musical work in a class presentation, I would advise them to use no more than 30 seconds from any one piece. I would also want them to identify their source and include a bibliography. JC
My students are not at the age to create video or image presentations yet; however, the correct thing to do is to always cite and give credit to whom it deserves it.
If my students presented a project, they would need to provide the URL for any images or sound used in the presentation. This would make it easier for me to check their sources.
If my students presented projects in the classroom, I would expect them to provide the URL for any images or sounds. Not only does that give the author attribution, it would enable me to easily check their sources.
