Copyright Advice for Teachers (What is Fair Use?) : Teach Digital
Copyright is a difficult concept for teachers to grasp as a result of the grey areas associated with its relationship with education, even I don’t completely understand it. Ignorance is bliss! Perhaps if you secretly know you are in breech of copyright then it might be advisable to stop reading this article now! Personally, I think it is extremely important to teach students about copyright and implement good practice in the classroom. This advice is not needed if you have some understanding of the function of Creative Commons and media in the public domain. Most of us know that once a piece of work has been created it is immediately protected by Copyright. Other works can also be in the Public Domain if the copyright owner surrenders their right to the material, which is the general concept of Creative Commons, but again this often comes with conditions that students should be made aware of. Now, lets investigate the grey area of education purposes. US Copyright Law US Fair Use Advice

Today I spent some time with students discussing the issue of plagiarism. It’s an important issue to discuss, and one that I would prefer to cover at the start of the year rather than nearer the end of it, but I take heart from the fact that we are having these important discussions with our student population. I thought I’d share some of the resources I used to put my presentation together. First up, I think it’s important to note that one of the General capabilities that need to be addressed in the upcoming Australian Curriculum is Ethical behaviour. In the Australian Curriculum students develop ethical behaviour as they learn to understand and act in accordance with ethical principles. Understanding the need to behave with academic honesty certainly is an ethical understanding our students need to have. The definition of plagiarism I used came from the Smartcopying website, an excellent source of information about copyright for Australian schools and TAFE institutions. Google+

Consignes écrire une critique littéraire
1. Définition et description Le terme « critique » signifie : jugement portant sur une œuvre d’art (par exemple, un roman ) ou auteur de ce jugement. Une critique est donc un texte court (il excède rarement une demi page) qui présente une opinion sur une œuvre d’art, dasn notre cas, une ouvre littéraire. Ce texte comporte en général trois parties : narrative, informative et argumentative dans des proportions variables, en fonction du journal, de son intention et du public ciblé. La partie narrative, quand l'objet de la critique est un récit, présente l'histoire de façon accrocheuse (résumé de l’histoire). Cela aide le destinataire à se faire une première idée de l'œuvre.
