Situation
  • Student Greene has created a PowerPoint lesson about the 50’s.  She used her school computer to download music for the presentation. She only used 30 seconds of each song that she used.
  • A. This was an acceptable use of the school computer system.


  • B. This was not an acceptable use of the computer school system.
  • C.  It is never legal to use copyrighted music in instructional settings.

Answer
  • The correct answer is: B
  • No software or music may be downloaded on school computers.  (The music could be recorded from a purchased CD or downloaded at home from a legal site that is charging a fee for the music. In this instance, the copyright law was NOT broken because it is legal to use 10% or up to 30 seconds of music in an instructional setting within a classroom. The source of the music must be documented. Ten percent is usually an acceptable portion of copyrighted material to be used in a school project.)
