The lesson includes three parts: part one focuses on plagiarism; part two introduces copyright and fair use; and part three helps students with their paraphrasing skills.

Students need time to practice citing sources and paraphrasing, to see examples of writing that properly uses paraphrasing and citations, and to reinforce these concepts. When students are taught information about these concepts early in their academic careers they are less likely to have difficulty as the demands for research increase with the sophistication of the work.
an understanding of fair use practices
The Copyright Management Center has an excellent checklist for helping to determine whether the intended use is fair or if permission to use should be sought.
define plagiarism, fair use, and paraphrasing.
recognize and provide examples of plagiarism, fair use, and paraphrasing.
use appropriate paraphrasing strategies to replace advanced-level words with age/grade/level appropriate vocabulary.
Make copies of the Research Skills KWL handout and Checklist for Fair Use for each student.

The Copyright Office at the Library of Congress defines fair use as “purposes for which the reproduction of a particular work may be considered ‘fair,’ such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.”
“quotation of excerpts in a review or criticism for purposes of illustration or comment; quotation of short passages in a scholarly or technical work, for illustration or clarification of the author’s observations; use in a parody of some of the content of the work parodied; summary of an address or article, with brief quotations, in a news report; reproduction by a library of a portion of a work to replace part of a damaged copy; reproduction by a teacher or student of a small part of a work to illustrate a lesson; reproduction of a work in legislative or judicial proceedings or reports; incidental and fortuitous reproduction, in a newsreel or broadcast, of a work located in the scene of an event being reported.” (U.S. Copyright Office, Factsheet on fair use of copyrighted works. July 2006, http://www.copyright.gov/fls/fl102.html)
