EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT USING ONLINE RESOURCES-BUT DIDNT WANT TO ASK

With online teaching, there are virtually no limits to what you can share with your students to enrich their educational experience.

Except the legal ones.

Copyright law doesnt stop at your classroom door-especially if your course is online.

Explore the legal ins and outs of using online material in the Linking, Embedding & Streaming: Whats Legal? Whats Not? 20-Minute Mentor, presented by Linda Enghagen, JD.
