28. Copyright Policy #814
 The Board emphasizes that the United States Code
makes it illegal for anyone to duplicate copyrighted
materials without permission, except as otherwise
permitted by law. The Board attests that severe penalties
are provided for unauthorized copying of audio, visual,
software or printed materials unless otherwise
permissible. The Board acknowledges the copyright
owner’s exclusive rights to reproduce, prepare (alter),
distribute, perform and display his/her work.
 Areas for potential copyright infringement are defined
through administrative guidelines. (i.e. copy machines,
broadcast programs, distance learning, software, web
publishing)

29. Copyright Policy #814
 The complexities of the law and the impracticality of
supervising all District duplicating equipment require
that each district employee becomes familiar with the
copyright requirements and assume responsibility for
adherence to this Board policy and the accompanying
guidelines. Staff may make copies of copyrighted
materials that fall within stated guidelines. Staff
members who fail to follow this policy may be held
personally liable for copyright infringement.
 The guidelines for applying fair use of copyrighted
material are provided.

30. Copyright Policy #814
 Employees should review the full policy on the web
as it provides guidelines for Fair Use and a
Frequently Asked Questions section.
 Additional copyright resources are available on the
WSD eToolbox.

31. Software Installations Policy #814.1
 In order to be compliant with copyright laws, all software-licensing
agreements must be honored by District employees and students. This
policy is to protect the District and its employees, administrators, and
students from violating copyright laws.
 The term “Software” includes any computer programs that physically reside
on a computer or network.
 The District’s Director of Technology shall maintain an updated license
database to assure compliance with copyrights laws.
 The District’s technology staff shall perform all software installations.
 No student, employee or administrator shall install software on his/her
own or District computers using the Wissahickon Network Services (WNS).
 Employees, administrators and students are liable for the consequences of
any illegal software installed on their assigned computers.
 Unawareness of the content of a software agreement is not an excuse from
prosecution or disciplinary action.

32. Next Steps
 Policies are available on the district web page
www.wsdweb.org under About WSD  School Board 
Board Policies
 Employees should review the policies appropriate to
their employee classification as the information provided
in this presentation were the key points of each policy.
More details are included in the full policies.
 All employees should sign the BLUE AUP cards and the
Software Licensing Acknowledgement Form which will
be kept on file in the Personnel Department.

33. Procedures for Students
 A copy of the AUP with the student form attached should be distributed to
students in homerooms the first week of school. Homeroom teachers
should review and discuss the key points with their students.
 Homeroom teachers should sign off on the cards that the discussion was
held.
 The policy and form should be sent home for parents and the student to
sign.
 Signed and completed forms should be kept on file in the school’s main
office.
 Cards that are not signed by parents and the student, or have not been
returned to school, will result in the student’s network account being
deactivated and will not have access to the computers and other
technology. Parents that request no Internet be available to their child can
be accommodated and the technology department will only turn off access
to the Internet. Other appropriate access to the network will still be
available.
 Future forms should be distributed when student enter Grades 3, 6, and 9.

34. Plagiarism and Copyright
 What’s the difference?
 Plagiarize – “to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of
another) as one's own : use (another's production) without
crediting the source” http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/plagiarizing
 Copyright- “the exclusive legal right to reproduce, publish,
sell, or distribute the matter and form of something (as a
literary, musical, or artistic work)”http://www.merriam-
webster.com/dictionary/copyright

35. Copyright protection subsists in original works of
authorship fixed in any tangible medium of
expression.
A person’s idea must take a form, which include
books, music, plays, choreography, movies, sound
recordings.
17 U.S.C. Section 102
What is entitled to copyright protection?

36. Rights of Copyright Owners
Copyright owners have exclusive rights to:
-Reproduce the work
-Distribute the work
-Prepare derivative works
-Publicly display the work
-Publicly perform the work
17 U.S.C. Section 106

37. Exceptions to Rights of Copyright Owners
 Fair Use – Section 107
 Displays and Performances in Face-to-Face
Teaching and Distance Learning Environments
(Section 110, TEACH Act)
 Public Domain
 Government works

38. Face-to-Face Teaching, Direct Instruction, and
Curriculum Connected – TEACH Act
Notwithstanding the provisions of section 106, the
following are not infringements of copyright:
(1) performance or display of a work by instructors or
pupils in the course of face-to-face teaching activities
of a nonprofit educational institution, in a classroom
or similar place devoted to instruction, unless, in the
case of a motion picture or other audiovisual work,
the performance, or the display of individual images,
is given by means of a copy that was not lawfully
made under this title, and that the person responsible
for the performance knew or had reason to believe
was not lawfully made;
17 U.S. Code 110 (1)

39. Fair Use
Notwithstanding the provisions of sections
106,the fair use of a copyrighted work, including
such use by reproduction in copies or
phonorecords or by any other means specified by
that section, for purposes such as criticism,
comment, news reporting, teaching (including
multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship,
or research, is not an infringement of copyright.
17 U.S. Code 107

40. Four Factors: FACT SENSITIVE
In determining whether the use made of a work in any
particular case is a fair use the factors to be considered
shall include —
(1) the purpose and character of the use, including whether
such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit
educational purposes;
(2) the nature of the copyrighted work;
(3) the amount and substantiality of the portion used in
relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and
(4) the effect of the use upon the potential market for or
value of the copyrighted work.

41. Transformative Use
Most important to the court’s analysis of the first factor is
the “transformative” nature of the work. The question is
“whether the new work merely supersede[s] the objects
of the original creation, or instead adds something new,
with a further purpose or different character, altering the
first with new expression, meaning, or message.”
Bill Graham Archives v. Dorling Kindersley Ltd., 448 F.3d
605, 610 (2nd Circuit, 2006), quoting, Campbell v. Acuff-
Rose Music, Inc., 510 U.S. 569, 579 (1994).

Fairy Use Tale-
http://etoolbox.wikispaces.com/copyright

42. Requires Thinking
 Student Projects/Teacher Instruction in confines
of classroom compared to outside the classroom
(home grown, creative commons, etc., get
permission, fair use) (FLOW CHARTS)
 Checklist for Fair Use
 Materials marketed for teacher use, e.g., Teacher
Manuals, workbooks, etc. do not fall within 107 or
110 exceptions

43. Caution: Guidelines
 The guidelines are not the law.
 The guidelines are part of the legislative history
of the copyright law, but do not have the force of
law.
 There are varying views of the importance of the
guidelines.

44. Being Sued and Damages
 Good Faith Fair Use Defense
(2) In a case where the copyright owner sustains the
burden of proving, and the court finds, that infringement
was committed willfully, the court in its discretion may
increase the award of statutory damages to a sum of not
more than $150,000. In a case where the infringer
sustains the burden of proving, and the court finds, that
such infringer was not aware and had no reason to
believe that his or her acts constituted an infringement of
copyright, the court in its discretion may reduce the
award of statutory damages to a sum of not less than
$200.
17 U.S. Code 504 (c) (2)
