A Fair(y) Use Tale
Fair use is a tricky to wrap your mind around. Eric Faden of Bucknell University has found a great way to get the main ideas across. He chops up Disney videos to introduce key concepts and explain the issues. Would be a great way to introduce Fair Use in your copyright and ethics units.

I am coonducting my thesis research on international collaboration with elementary students using podcasting. My students and I will collaborate with a classroom in Colombia, South America in the fall.

Wow, this video is amazing! Thanks so much for sharing. It’s a little bit distracting trying to get the message through all of the scene changes, but the overall message is a powerful one. So many teachers (myself often included) are so afraid of copyright sometimes it’s easier just to say, “Ummm.. you’d better not.” That’s not the right answer. The right answer is to be educated. Thanks again for sharing.

What’s scary about this the most….is the thought and time consumption to edit all of the video together.
Great work and great find Steve.
