Thing #23

THING 23!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shouldn't teachers be allowed to share and copy outside work for their students? Sometimes teachers find great examples of literature or a wonderful video, but can they share it with students? Copy right is sometimes forgotten, which means that teachers are plagiarizing. Creative commons is a wonderful site that allows students to share and copy ideas! You still have to give the creator credit, but it is an alternative to the full copy right laws, which gives teachers more access to information and ideas. Yay teachers!

Creative Commons are very important for giving credit to original creators of documents but I agree that teachers should be allowed to use resources that could help in educating the students in the classroom.
