R.I.P. -- Respect for Intellectual Property

With the ease of copying and ripping of digital information, it is important that our students respect the intellectual property of others. This page includes links to teach about fair use, Creative Commons, and supplies some ideas to help students internalize this important aspect of becoming a good digital citizen.

If you find a link that is not working, please let me know the title and I will fix it! Thank you!
