Copyright and Fair Use Long Reponse

The one that I had the strongest reaction to was question number 14 which dealt with the Disney movies and the PTA. I was surprised that it was not allowed to show Disney movies at a Back-to-School night to the younger children simply because there is no real financial reward and the concept of entertainment seemed kind of silly to me. I believe that every movie shown in class is essentially about entertainment because that's simply what learning is. Also, Disney movies in particular can be considered educational. I feel that I am missing the big point on this one because it just seems wrong to disallow this to happen.

Copyright and Fair Use Quick Response

1. I was surprised with number 7 because I would have figured you would need student permission to post their work on a website, after considering it as long as the website is protected it makes more sense.

2. Number 11 surprised me because it seems as though you promoting messing with someone else's work.

3. Number 12 surprised me because of the word "digitizing" but apparently I don't know what that means, I suppose it was the same reaction I had one number 11.

4. Number 13 surprised me as I was not aware that you could use other people's intellectual property for educational purposes without permission.

5. Number 14 surprised me as I that was the question I was 100% sure I had write and I was quickly proven wrong, I did not forsee a problem with showing kids a Disney movie whatsoever.

6. Number 15 surprised me as I did not see a problem in compliling movie clips to start off a lesson I actually am pretty sure I had a professor here at UMF do that every class.

7. Number 16 surprised me because this one just simply seemed wrong.

8. Number 19 surprised me simply because I did not realize there was a difference between playing part of a song and playing the entire song.
