8.1.c A Creator's Rights (Copyright)

Learning about Copyright:

We are all creators.  Think about times you have recorded an idea you had.  This could be writing something down, uploading it onto the Internet, taking a picture or video, or making something for a class. Think about a time when you have used things online that others have created, such as copying or downloading something from the Internet.  Watch a video below about a real girl who is a writer and shares her writing online.
