Critical Thinking: Discussion
Think Pair Share
Have you ever created a piece of
?
What questions come to mind when you hear the word
copyright
?
If you own
intellectual property, do you think having it copy written will help you?Why? Why not?Slide7
Copyright Law: Background
When most people think of the word, “
copyright
,” they think about the rights of owners to control access to their intellectual property. This is accurate, but it is not the whole story.
The U.S. Constitution says, the purpose of
copyright is to promote the spread of knowledge and innovation. The writers believed that encouraging the development of new ideas and information serves society as a whole.Slide8
Copyright Law
A
copyright
is a form of
intellectual property law
that protects original works of authorship, including literary, dramatic, musical and artistic works.
A
copyright
lists the publisher of a work and the year in which the work was published. All books must have a copyright.
Copyright Law does not protect facts, ideas, systems, or methods of operation.Slide9
Copyright Law
As soon as something is created,
copyright
is automatically implied - no copyright notice or procedures are required; however, registering works
of
not
only protects the owner from unauthorized usage but can also provide greater rewards should litigation become necessary.Slide10
Think Pair Share
How do you think the internet affects
?
Do you think the internet has affected the economic value of
? If so, how?Slide11
Copyrights
The Internet and other digital technologies have made it easier than ever to share, use, copy, modify and distribute still and moving images, and sounds that are the “
” of others.
There are people who believe that
should be unprotected and unrestricted. They, like the original writers U.S. Copyright Law, believe that individual creativity serves society as a whole.
Those at the other end of the spectrum feel that the government should strengthen and enforce laws to protect
better. The key issue here is about producer rights and user rights; a balance between public and private interests. Slide12
Copyright Law
Copyright
means that you control the rights to a bundle of rights, including rights to:
(1)

to
make
copies the copyrighted work
(2)
to make modifications based on the original work (called derivative works) (3) distribute copies of recordings of the work to the public by sale, rental, or leasing (distribution rights)Slide13
Copyright Law
(4) present literary, musical, and audiovisual works to the
public (
publishing rights
)
(5) present digital audio transmissions of certain sound
recordings (
transmission rights
)
You can unbundle, split, sell, or license these rights in a variety of ways. EXAMPLES:you can sell rights for a certain period of time (a five-year license)sell
rights to a territory or in a language (sales in France, sales in the French language)
sell
rights to a medium (distribute on cable TV or sell on videotape)Slide14
Copyright Symbols: ©
℗
The
copyright symbol
, designated by ©, is the symbol

used in
copyright
notices for works OTHER than sound recordings.
In the United States, the copyright notice consists of: the © symbol, or the word "Copyright" or abbreviation "Copr.”;the year of first publication of the copyrighted work; and
an identification of the owner of the copyright.
EX:
©

Shadow IllusionsSlide15
Copyright Symbols: ©
℗
The sound recording
copyright symbol
,
℗
, is used to designate copyright

for sound recordings.
EX: ℗ 2016 Elsibu Music ProductionsSlide16
Copyrights: Terms
As a general rule, for works created after January 1, 1978, copyright protection lasts for the
life of the author plus 70 years
.
For an anonymous work, a pseudonymous work, or a work made for hire, the copyright endures for a term of 95 years from the year of its first publication or a term of 120 years from the year of its creation, whichever expires first.Slide17
When using copy written works that belong to someone else, first, you must have their permission, second, you must give them credit for the work
.
Copyright infringement
is the use of works protected by copyright law without the owner’s permission.Slide18
Think Pair Share
If
copyright
protection lasts for the life of the author plus 70 years, what do you think happens to the
afterwards?
Why would asking someone’s permission to use their
and giving credit to the owner be important?Slide19
Copyrights: Fair Use Law
Fair Use Law
-
an author may make limited use of another author's work without asking permission.
Uses That Are Generally Fair Uses
Criticism and comment
Quoting from a work in a review or essay
.
News reporting
Research and scholarshipQuoting a short passage in a scholarly, scientific, or technical work for illustration or clarificationNonprofit or educational usesParody
Drawing elements from a work for the purpose of imitating it in a comic way.Slide20
There are four factors courts weigh in determining whether an unauthorized use of copyright material is permitted under fair use:
(1) the purpose and character of use
are you creating something new or just copying the work?
(2) the nature of the copyrighted work Slide21
Four Court Factors continued ~
(3)
the amount and importance of the work used

despite common myths there is no 8-bar rule for sampling music, no 30-second rule

for using video clips, and no one-paragraph rule

for using text(4) the effect of the use on the (potential) market for or value of the work, considered as if the use was widespread. http://www.nationaltechcenter.org/index.php/2007/03/04/copyright-and-fair-use-faqs/Slide22
