I don't really think that copy right and fair use laws will affect me much as a teacher, unless I am doing a project with the students.  I think that it will be difficult to monitor the students use of things that have copyright laws.

I think, copyright and fair use will affect me everyday and my students in the classroom. Most of the information used in school is copyright information. Teaching is using information and teaching it to the young. Teaching copyright and fair use to students will help them for the rest of their life.

I think that if we weren't able to copy anything, teacher would have to be more creative and think outside of the box more. Students expect to see some of the same things and teachers expect to use things from other people, so not being able to use that would be good and bad. Teachers would have to take more time to plan out lessons and activities. On the good side we wouldn't see a lot of teachers using the same material that's outdated and no use. On the bad side, sometimes teachers don't have the skills to make something as fun as Disney would make it, we would probably need more collaborative thinking among teachers.
