Educators and students have vast, rich resources available to them online, but few teachers or educational leaders really know what uses of digital material are lawful. In Copyright Clarity: How Fair Use Supports Digital Learning, Renee Hobbs, one of America's top media literacy experts, provides a set of principles that clarify how copyright law and the doctrine of fair use apply to 21st-century learning. This book dispels the misconceptions and myths that have contributed to concerns about the educational use of materials related to mass media, popular culture, and digital media and helps educators apply the principles of fair use to the most common classroom scenarios.
