Two copyright issues I was familiar with:
- That copyright provides authors of work with protection of how their work can be used, reproduced, among other things that keep their original ideas from being copied.
- In general, you can write to the author of the copyrighted work and ask for permission to use their work.
Two copyright issues that were new to me:
- I had never heard of the TEACH Act before, so this was an entirely new concept to me.
- I previously did not understand that there were public domains, in addition to copyrighted works, as silly as that sounds. I have always just given credit to the source I’ve used for projects and assignments.
