Ashlee-
I have to completely agree with you that I find the copyright laws to be a little scary and intimidating. I really feel as though copyright is something that needs to be brought into more conversations so that people know what the rules are, and not just find out the hard way after they have used something incorrectly. As the previous comments said this is something that needs to be taught in not only college, but I really feel as though it should be taught along with plagiarism.
Original Post:
Copyright is not something that I have ever really discussed with anyone. This doesn’t mean that I don’t feel that its important because I feel that everyone should receive credit for the work or time they put into something. During all my college classes plagiarism has always been the hot topic. Never, until I attended Full Sail, had I been advised to look for copyright protected works.
I can honestly say that I didn’t know much about the subject until over the past year and more so now after watching videos and reading articles. I am glad that works can be protected, but I am also amazed at the consequences. It is a little scary to me. Copyright laws actually make me want to only use things that I create myself.
