Hi 6th graders, I'm sorry I will be missing you today. I hope you will do your best to follow ALL of the instructions on here to complete each task. If you need help, or don't understand something please ask the person NEXT to you, or email me and ask, I'll be with my computer all day. (sweeney@mybps.me)
The other day, a 7th grader was contacted by a blog owner asking her to take down a picture she had used, or face a fine for violating copyright law. It made me think that maybe we could all use a refresher on Copyright, Plagiarism & Fair Use.
Follow these steps in order, please take your time, and watch everything. Your next class will most likely depend on what you have learned.
You may start class by logging into X2 and checking your grades if you want. They were posted yesterday. Username & password on back board.
1. Take the link to my Prezi. Please read everything and watch each video. Watch & read more than once if you need to. http://prezi.com/m9vvdhjaxngp/copyright-plagiarism-fair-use/
2. Do you feel like you need more information on some of these topics? Check out at least one link below, or all of them.

4. Create a new document, give it the title: PCF 6th and your last name
5. Open another tab and go to google search
6. Search any topic, but keep it school appropriate and click on any result (Doesn't matter which one, you are only doing one thing with it.)
7. Number your Google Doc 1-3
8. Number 1: Give me an example of plagiarism from your search result (hint* copy and paste), then give me an example of how you could make it so it isn't plagiarized. (hint* put it in your own words & say where it came from)
9. Number 2: Give me an example of something that is copyrighted. What does it mean to break copyright? (Doesn't have to be from search result)
10. Number 3: Give me an example of Fair Use. How does Fair Use apply to you or one of your teachers?
11. Don't know an answer? Go back to one of the links above and review
12. Check that you used full sentences, proper spelling, and grammar
13. Doc automatically saves, so exit out of it, go back to drive, and drag and drop this document into your ILT folder. ***This will make the doc shared with me, and I will be reading them at my conference :)
14. Double check your doc is shared with me before moving on
If you finish, you have the flollowing options and only these options please.
