Copyright

In this day and age, more than ever, it is important to teach students about copyright. It is so easy to "steal" music, pictures and other pieces of work with technology making it so accessible. We need to teach our children at a young age how so important it is to site work if it is others. This goes along with not plagiarizing others work as well. Young students might not understand why things must be sited if they are copyrighted so it is good to have a discussion in the classroom around the whys, as well as have the students practice how to properly site different types of work, such as photos.
