In the video “Fair Use for Media Literacy Education” the main idea is what are the rights for teachers to use copyrighted material to teach their classes? in my personal opinion, I think it should be fine that teachers may implament educational videos in their lessons. When I was in highschool, my sociology teacher had told us about a study she had done about the effectiveness of teaching off of the blackboard as compared to showing videos. My teacher stated that grades were higher when she would show videos for a week as compared to writing noted on a blackboard for a week. I can’t see how this really would be plagiarism, because people make these videos to spread their intellect to the world and if they’re saying that this is plagiarising, then it just doesn’t make any sense. As long as the teachers do not say that they made the video, then it should be okay to show students these ideas in their classrooms. The idea of plagiarism is a hard topic to discuss. In this situation I believe that plagiarism laws should not be enforced, but if there is a problem with whoever made the film, then, sadly, there is nothing we can do.

I agree with what you have implied because I also believe that teachers should be allowed to use copyrighted material to teach their classes. I don’t believe that this should be considered plagiarism because it does help us students to broaden up our minds and let us get a clear concept of what we’re trying to learn. These are good examples to just help us understand better not something that us people will decide to plagiarize. As long as the teacher makes it clear who’s the video by and that it’s the original video then there should be no problem or any type misunderstanding.
