Schools can help manage copyright costs by:• Only copying what they need for educational purposes

• Attach the mandatory notice.

29

Cost Burden of Statutory Licences

TAFE institutes have statutory obligations to pay copyright licence fees for their use of other people’s copyright material, unless free for educational use.

The TAFE sector nationally (excl Vic) paid over $6 million in copyright licence fees in 2011.

30

Free exceptions

31

s 28 - performing or communicating in class

• Allows schools to perform and communicate material 'in class' (includes remote students)

• A free exception – no fees are paid.• Does not permit copying – just

performing/playing in class

See “Performance and Communication of works and audio-visual material – What am I allowed to do?” :


32

s.200AB: Flexible Dealing

• Rely on flexible dealing when no statutory licence (Part VA or Part VB) or free use exception (s 28) applies to your use.

• Teachers may copy videos (eg YouTube) and sound recordings (eg podcasts, music) under flexible dealing subject to certain requirements.

• Flexible dealing will not apply where it is possible to purchase a similar teaching resource

• A free exception – no fees are paid. See information sheet:

“The New Flexible Dealing Exception – What am I allowed to do?”:http://www.smartcopying.edu.au/scw/go/pid/542

Free Use Exceptions: Flexible Dealing

1. Is my use covered by a statutory licence or exception?

2. Am I using this for giving educational instruction?

3. Am I only using what I need for educational instruction?

4. Can I purchase the format I need?5. Will my use unreasonably prejudice the

copyright owner?

34

S 200AB: Flexible Dealing - Examples

1. Compile short extracts of audio-visual material for use in class (eg making DVD of short extracts of several films for a Film Studies or English class) when it is not possible to purchase similar teaching resources.

2. Format shift a film or sound recording on CD/cassette to a digital file format when it is not possible to buy a digital version of the film or sound recording.

See information sheet:“Flexible Dealing and the Copyright Amendment Act 2006 –

What am I allowed to do?” http://www.smartcopying.edu.au/scw/go/pid/542

S 200AB and Commercial DVDs

Cannot copy from commercial DVDs.

• Commercial DVDs are protected by ATPMs - access control technological protection measures.

• ATPMs – any technology that prevents a user from easily accessing and copying the content on a DVD.

• It is illegal to circumvent an ATPM (eg CSS)

• Making a digital copy of a commercial DVD is likely to involve circumventing the ATPM and therefore is illegal.

See information sheet ‘Technological Protection Measures and the Copyright Amendment Act 2006’: http://www.smartcopying.edu.au/scw/go/pid/526

36

s 200AB: Flexible Dealing Dos and Don’ts

Smartcopying tips…

Link – link or embed material whenever possible. Don't download or copy.

Providing a link is not a copyright activity. You are not copying the content, just providing a

reference to its location elsewhere.

43


Label – always attribute the source.

• All material created and used for educational purposes should be properly attributed.

• Applies to both photocopied and digital material

• Attribution info needs to include details of the copyright owner and/or author, where the material was sourced from and when.

See labelling information sheet at: http://www.smartcopying.edu.au/scw/go/pid/532

44


Label – always attribute the source.

• Attributing is important to ensure that we don't pay licence fees for material we already own or are allowed to use

• eg teacher/school/student created content

See labelling information sheet at: http://www.smartcopying.edu.au/scw/go/pid/532

45


Limit – ensure access to material is limited to relevant students only

Once material is communicated to an entire institute/campus or jurisdiction, the risk of copyright infringement increases dramatically.

46



Limiting access is an important cost management practice.

Collecting societies believe that the value of content increases with the number of people who can access it.

47



Access to s200AB copies must be limited to those students who need to use the material for educational instruction, ie one class as opposed to an entire school.

48


Clear out unwanted content regularlyMaterial copied and communicated under the Statutory Licences is paid for again for every 12 months it remains 'live'.

Flushing material that is no longer required is one practical way of managing the copyright costs.

49


Clear out unwanted content regularly

Two options:

Archive – for material that is not currently being used but is likely to be used in the future.

Move it into a closed area on the repository or elsewhere online where it can only be accessed by one person, such as the school librarian, ICT Manager or teacher who uploaded the material to repository in the first place.

50


Clear out unwanted content regularly

Two options:

Delete – for material that the school no longer requires for educational purposes should be completely deleted from the repository.

51


Use Open Education Resources

• Material whose owner has given permission for the material to be used for educational purposes, for free

• Depending on the licence, OER can also be modified and shared by teachers and students.

Free for Education (FFE)

• ‘Free for education’ (FFE) material is similar to OER

• But FFE material may not permit a teacher to communicate, modify or share the material. This will depend on the particular terms and conditions of use.
