ONLINE: Copyright and Course materials

UMN policies affirm that instructors have both the right and the responsibility to make their own decisions about their course materials. Copyright is one issue that often comes up, especially around what materials can be shared with students on course websites or as additional readings (or viewings, etc.) This session will give a brief overview of these issues, focusing on some options for course materials that don’t raise any copyright issues, and also delving into some options that require a little critical thinking.
