 Students and Copyright: Discipline and Punish?

 

"Microsoft has just come out with a new survey on student’s attitudes towards online copyright. The research suggests that very few students have a strong understanding of the issue, but it also makes me wonder just how they’re defining the nature of copyright, and whether it takes into account fair use as much as it should." by Andy Carvin, PBS Teachers, LEARNING.NOW

 

See the survey results in this PDF document:

According to Wikipedia:

 

Open content, a neologism coined by analogy with "open source", describes any kind of creative work published in a format that explicitly allows copying and modifying of its information by anyone, not exclusively by a closed organization, firm or individual.

 

Copyright symbolized "©" – is a legal concept, enacted by most governments, giving the creator of an original work exclusive rights to it, usually for a limited time.
