Copyright Reflection


In high school most of my teachers went about talking about copyright issues by scaring us! It definitely worked and still works today. Not many people will knowingly plagiarize something and pass it off as their own if the threat of getting kicked out of school is looming over their heads. Sure there are still people who do that but that’s few and far between. I would like to talk to my students about it by informing them about the rules/laws, how to not do it, and how to check if they plagiarized something. Knowledge is key in an issue like this
Our stop animation video took a lot of time to do and was very frustrating with all of our technical difficulties so I would be kind of annoyed if someone used our video and tried to pass it off as their own. I don’t know if my group should have maybe included something to give credit to the music we found off the internet? We didn’t but we obviously didn’t create that song that played in the background.
