This video explained how the website http://creativecommons.org has made a new form of Copyright for all different types of medias. They have made it possible to let people create a customized copyright by either allowing their work to be commercially used or allowing modifications to their work. This new form of Copyright has let content be created, shared, remixed, re-purposed, and passed along which is an amazing thing to happen.
This movement is an amazing thing to happen for all educators and students. It gives students the option to share their work with the world and be creative and proud of what they have created. This also gives teachers the option to let students create photos, videos, music, or stories which is a very important lesson. I see myself having students do a project where they must create their own media and decide how they want to use their copyright. I will also have the children comment and work together to make their projects the best it can be. It gives them a way to help each other create and learn to critic each others work in a professional manner. With the students picking the media they would like to create it gives them the option of picking something to create that they will truly care about and the work will show. Letting students create and learn how to work with copyright is a very important lesson to learn.
