The Educause web site offers this summary of the DMCA, along with an explanation of some of the proposed changes and up-to-date information on the latest exemptions and interpretations. There are also links to a variety of information sources on copyright and digital technologies.

tag(s): air (97), copyright (39)

In the Classroom

This site is quite sophisticated and not likely to be useful to students below 11th or 12th grade, though all teachers should know wbout copyright and electronic resources. Educase offers these articles for those who have a serious interest in reading the "real stuff" instead of oversimplified interpretations. Not advisable as "light reading."

NOTE: SCORE Cyberguides announced that they are no longer checking links and maintaining these excellent resources as of April 2008 due to lack of funding. You will want to verify all links before using the cyberguide in class. You may want to use portions of this cyberguide in combination with other online resources.
