Pre-1972 sound recordings are considered classic and legendary, which should be respected and protected. However, digital (terrestrial) radio companies continue to exploit it as public domain and do not feel obligated to pay out royalties to its copyright owner(s). Under the Copyright Act 1909, all sound recordings are protected by state law, but after the Copyright Act of 1972, sound recordings created after February of 1972 were federally protected (Brook 126). This lead to the question: What about the federal protection of sound recordings created prior to the Copyright Act of 1972? Pre-1972 sound recordings are not federally protected, meaning copyright owners are exempted from receiving the same rights as post-1972 copyright owners. Since

Have you been unjustly accused, then punished? So have many companies. When dealing with trusts and monopolies, controversy is sure to arise. This discussion is a result of the benefits, and also the disadvantages of monopolies in our market. With these arguments going on, discussions of the Sherman Antitrust Act in many legal cases, have been whether or not this law is beneficial to our economy and population, or harmful. People have gathered on both sides of this debate looking for the truth behind the effect of the Sherman Antitrust act. To learn how the Sherman Antitrust Act works we must look back to when and why it was created.

Before the enactment of TEACH act, students and the teachers ware less advantaged to the use of copyrighted materials and how they were presented online in distance education. The act tried to end the differences between online education and face-to-face classroom setup, often these differences had detrimental effects to online learning. As stated by Jairath & Mills (2006) the act

The court argued that the Copyright Act did not make Grokster or the other companies responsible for infringement, but secondary liability doctrines came into play. The software that was distributed over large areas would be challenging to find and deal with every single violator one at a time. At the time the only right thing to do was to rule against the software distributor for secondary liability. At this point, the software companies were held accountable for making profits off advertisement, and encouraging such acts of violating copyrights.

According to Mary Juetten, founder and CEO of Traklight and co-chair of the Arizona Technology Council’s Law and Technology Committee, in her article “How to Avoid Copyright Infringement,” she provides several methods to avoid copyright infringement. First, people should use caution if it’s not their original work, even if there is no copyright symbol. If you were to use the material, look for the license or permission before using anything that is not yours. Second, people should re-read and review the licensing terms (or any agreements) carefully to avoid issues. For example, if you bought an article from Harvard Business Review, you are only allowed to use for your own and cannot re-sell the article to others or you will received a fine.

Fair Use is a concept in the Copyright Act. It states a fair use is copying any protected material (texts, sounds, images, etc.) for a limited and transformative purpose, like criticizing, commenting, parodying, news reporting, or teaching the copyrighted work. Under the US copyright laws, fair use is not an infringement of copyright (Copyright.gov, n.d.). There are two fair use laws that allow copyright material to be used in an educational setting: Face-to-Face Law, known as the classroom use exemption, requires you to be in a classroom or similar place of instruction. Be there in person, engaged in face-to-face activities, and be at a nonprofit educational institution. The Online Law known as the Technology, Education, and Copyright Harmonization

A leader must first of all be able to model the techniques and processes that they want their teachers to employ with the students. For this reason leaders should use an effective board spectrum of educational tools to help teachers reach students of the 21st century. One of the great tools being used today is the increase in the amount of technology used in the classroom. From iPad to chromo books to cellphones teachers are using these forms of technology to enhance and deliver grade level curriculum (Korach, Agans 2011 216-233).

Intellectual property represents ideas created by minds of humans that require certain rights for their use. Intellectual property gives companies a competitive advantage and attracts the attention of other business partners and investors (Lee, 2016). With such importance, it is necessary for the law to protect these ideas from being used by unauthorized individuals. To shield from this, trade secrets, patents, and copyrights are used to protect the ownership of intellectual property (Legal Information Institute).

One of these standards is the use of technology in each lesson. The implication is that “technology” is computer technology alone, instead of other types of technologies (e.g., paper and pen, white board, or calculator). The importance placed on using such technology underscores the importance being placed on moving students to higher levels of the “Cone of Learning” and from more simulated, “real-life” experiences. The “Cone of Learning” is likely not true due many factors. Most of the factors involve the lack of evidence to support any of the information provided in the “Cone of Learning” model.

Works made for hire is an exception to the general rule of copyright ownership. It is a category, defined by copyright law, which states that the author of a work is the commissioning party, not the actual creator of the work. Within this category, there are two classifications: (1) works created by an employee within the scope of employment and (2) specially commissioned works (Bouchoux, 2012).

With the integration of technology, students get direct, individualized instruction from the computer. This form of supplemental teaching allows them to engage with the information at times that are most convenient for them and helps them become more self-directed in the learning process. It also gives the teacher more time to accomplish classroom objectives, while freeing them up to help the students who might be struggling with certain lessons.

There is a lot of controversy about intellectual property and its application to software. There are many difficult, fundamental questions that arise, such as exactly what aspects of a piece of software should be protected under copyright or patent. [5] Despite the fact that applying existing laws to software is not very straight-forward, some sort of legal protection for intellectual property is necessary, as it provides a significant amount of positive outcomes, which will be described further in this paper. We will argue that the legal protection for intellectual property is an ethical obligation from a rule utilitarian ethical framework because it promotes innovation and economic

The Law of Copyright and its historical development - Tracing back the historical development of copyright protection of the authors work, the idea of copyright protection only began to emerge with the invention of printing, which made it possible for the literary works to be duplicated by mechanical processes. Prior to that, hand copying was the sole mean of reproduction. Following Gutenberg 's invention of printing press in 1436 in Germany, the necessity of protecting printers and booksellers was recognized there. Consequently, German Principalities granted certain privileges to printers and publishers and also authors. The art of printing spread quickly in Europe, King Richard Ill in 1483 allowed foreigners to import manuscripts and
