Images and other content in the public domain should be first on the list of media to use along with "homegrown" sources.

In addition to the <a href="http://www.mediaeducationlab.com/topic/Copyright+and+Fair+Use" rel="nofollow">resources on the Media Lab site</a> I would think about <a> this reasoning form </a> also developed in collaboration with the <a href="http://mediaeducationlab.com" rel="nofollow">Media Education Lab</a> to help teachers to exercise their rights to fair use and think through that process.

It is a really dangerous trap for new people because they read articles on fair use (mostly written in USA) and assume those laws apply to them. If they stick to H- Homegrown media and understanding C- Creative Commons licensed media then it is more likely they won't run into copyright issues. The other important law that individuals don't appreciate is the "Right to free speech". Once again USA based law. In Australia we don't have a right to free speech and can be sued for information placed online so besides appropriate online etiquette you also need to consider this implication.

It's short and quirky and hopefully appealing to students. I plan to make more posts on The Dear Librarian about an easier way to understand fair use, a description of creative commons, and the ideas of homegrown media. In the meantime, I'll be trying to think of creative ways to use the HCF! (And I'll watch your copyright powerpoint up above;) I'll let you know what I come up with.
