About

It is becoming easier and easier to download and upload film, text, images and music.

Just because it is easy to copy doesn’t mean that you are allowed to copy. Artistic and literary works, films and music are legally protected by copyright.

All Right to Copy? offers a guide to students and teachers as to what they can and cannot do when it comes to using the work of others.

Each of the sections in All Right to Copy? is introduced by a video where two students, Donna and Joe, are trying to put together a website for a web design competition. Along the way they confront the issues of using other people’s material.

Information on appropriate use of the different types of media is given in each of the sections.
