Lessons from TED: 5 Simple Tweaks | slide:ology

  • I heard a speaker at a recent conference (not TED) give instructions to the audience on inserting images into their presentations. “When you look for images on Google,” he said, “try to find the highest quality version”. I could hear a tiny cry of pain from designers and photographers all over the world.


    Folks, Google Image Search is not an appropriate tool for building professional presentations. Finding the “perfect” image on Google gives you no rights whatsoever to use it in your presentation. You need to contact the owner of the image and get permission, by paying for licensing rights. Or asking really nicely.

IEEE Spectrum: What Can You (Legally) Take From the Web?

In the decision, the court allowed as fair use Google's display of the thumbnail images because of what was copied, why it was copied, and what Google is. Google's actions of linking to the full-size images, however, may or may not constitute contributory infringement depending upon whether Google possesses the technological ability to, in the words of the court, "take simple measures to prevent further damages to Perfect 10's copyrighted works and failed to take such steps." And even if Google loses that fight, another law, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, may help Google at the retrial of the case.

The Clever Sheep

Creative Commons Chaos
In an attempt to bring some order to the chaos of Creative Commons licensing, I've created a list of resources that educators might share with students as a starting point for all manner of creative projects. To explain a bit about each resource, I've appended a 3 word summary to each CC tools/resource.

The podcast below explains how teachers might leverage these resources to teach students about the Creative Commons...
