This week I had the experience of learning a variety of new content including remix culture as well as learning how to use media legally and ethically. One quote that stuck out to me as I was enlightening myself on these ideas was, "it can be even harder to break them of the habit of doing a Google image search and grabbing the first relevant and powerful image they seek" (Woodall, 2017). This quote stuck with me because this is something that I have personally done over the last few years. However, after diving into a variety of different resources that can provide me with usable media, I realized how many websites are available with images and videos that we can use legally and ethically. While I continue to learn new ideas and content, I always seem to "put on my teacher hat" on. After reading the article, Teaching Kids About Copyright, I took away some great ideas and tips as an elementary teacher. In the article, Woodall states that, "teachers simply need to teach some key concepts, share some tools, and model digital citizenship in terms of copyright explicitly in the classroom" (2017). She goes on to discuss ways that educators can provide this support to their students and how important these lessons can be for students growing up in such a technology driven era. To summarize my thoughts and findings all together, I created a remix video where I discussed media use, specifically the copyright laws. Take a look at my remix video above! I break down the copyright law and provide tips on how to correctly use others' ideas or media. I also discuss how this can be important information to provide to students and our youth as we create these good habits at a young age. Resources:
