Copyright/Fair Use Definitions:

Copyright is a legal matter, which is backed up by the majority of governments throughout the world. It gives the exclusive rights to the original creator of any work. A copyright is your right to your copy. You have the right to make copies, to sell your work, to share it, etc. No one else has this right until you sign it over, or give some form of consent. Copyright laws give you the right to be properly compensated for your work should it be used, you can benefit from it financially or be credited to the work as you see fit.

Fair use is any copying of copyrighted material done for a limited and "transformative" purpose such as commentary, criticism, or parody. "Fair" uses do not require permission from the copyright owner. How and when it may be applied is left to the discretion of judges and juries.
Educational Use:  Educational, non-profit, and personal use is likely to be considered fair use; commercial use is not. However, the web and the desire to share or publish students’ work make it easy for teachers and students to cross the line from fair use into copyright violation. As a guideline, consider educational use to cover only what happens within the confines of your classroom (or distance learning environment).
