Assignment #1: Copyright and Copy-wrong



1. The purposes of research, private study, criticism, review, news reporting, education, satire, and parody.

2. Up to 10 per cent of a copyright-protected work can be copied under fair dealings.

3. Copying or communicating multiple short excerpts from the same copyright-protected work with the intention of copying or communicating substantially the entire work is prohibited.

4. A fee can be charged but it has to cover only the cost of the institution, including overhead cost.

5. Yes teachers can copy and use other peoples work for the teaching and tests.

6. To make a large print book, they must have permission from the owner.

7. Yes teachers and students can use audio or video for school projects.
Rules-
• it must take place on the premises of an educational institution;
• it must be for educational or training purposes;
• it must not be for profit;
• it must take place before an audience consisting primarily of students of the educational institution, persons acting under its authority, or any person who is directly responsible for setting a curriculum for the educational institution; and
• it must not involve a “motive of gain.“

8. Yes students at school preform a play or play music that is copyrighted. The same conditions as cited for audio and video apply. They can also play music with these conditions:
• take place on the premises of an educational institution; 
• be for educational or training purposes; 
• not be for profit; and 
• take place before an audience consisting primarily of students of the educational institution, persons acting under its authority, or any person who is directly responsible for setting a curriculum for the educational institution.

9. Schools require permission at their own dances and sporting events. SOCAN and Re:Sound can provide licences to schools and school boards across Canada.

10. The key questions are:
• Did the music use occur during school hours? 
• Will the student be graded on the activity involving the music use?
• Does the music use involve a demonstration by a student or teacher for other students, teachers, assessors, or parents? 
• Is it reasonable to consider the music use to be for educational purposes? The phrase “educational purposes” is not defined in the Copyright Act but can be described as an activity that is planned and where the objective is for students to meet one or more subject or program outcomes. • Was the music used on school premises?
• If admission was controlled, was it free?
• Was the music use for a non-profit purpose?

11. Students and teachers can use other's copyright protected work to create new works.
Rules:
  • It can only be used for non-commercial purposes. 
  • The original source must be mentioned, if it is reasonable to do so.
  • The original work used to generate the content must have been acquired legally.
  • The resulting user-generated content does not have a “substantial adverse effect” on the market for the original work. 
 12. Teachers can show audiovisual works purchased or rented from a retail store, a copy borrowed from the library, a copy borrowed from a friend, and a YouTube video.

13. No teachers cannot copy an audiovisual work at home and then show it in the classroom. Teachers can, however, show a legally obtained copy in the classroom. 

14.  The owner of a computer program can make a single copy in these two situations:
  • An owner of a legitimate copy of a computer program may make one backup copy of that program. The person must be able to prove that the backup copy is erased as soon as he or she ceases to be the owner of the copy of the computer program from which the backup was made.
  • An owner of a legitimate copy of a computer program may also make a single copy of that program by adapting, modifying, or converting the computer program or translating it into another computer language.
15. Yes students and teachers can copy from the internet. They must cite the source of the material they used.

16. The works you create in school are copyright protected. I think this is good because without people would steal your work and you wouldn't get credit.
