Copyright

All through out middle school and high school my teachers have shown us videos for either a related topic of study or just because it was before a break or the ap exam was over. For example we watch black hawk down in ap us history. We were not studying or even studied the war in the middle east, however it was just the video that the whole class picked to watch. Also before spring break in psychology we watched Forest Gump and then to fill up the rest of the days after we took our final we watched The Simpson episodes. The Simpsons were clearly not related to any course of study. As teachers I do believe that it is our responsibility to teach copyright laws the the students. We can do this by assigning a activity like incorporating a video into a lesson and also just playing a game like jeopardy where there are clips of music. As a history teacher I could also incorporate a court case concerning copyright when and if I am teaching a decade.
