Very informative course presented by knowledgeable instructors. Gained a greater appreciation for the pros and cons of copyright, in addition to a respect for the complexity and nuance in this area.

I wish I had taken this course at the very beginning of my graduate studies. I learned so much that would have been useful during my long journey from graduate student, to professor, to archivist.

It was interesting and informative however as a Canadian, it is not as relevant to me as it is to people in the U.S.

I gave it 3 stars for the age of the materials and supplemental readings. A lot of content is around 10 years old. While this may not be an issue for a topic such as copyright, it gives the impression that the content has not been reviewed or updated. An acknowledgement that the content selected is still relevant and nothing has been found to replace the current resources would confirm that the course is occasionally reviewed and updated as needed.

Having the balancing of videos and reading was very good. Please consider including strategies at the beginning for reading dense legal documents. Please also describe where the forums can be accessed at the beginning of the course. Also consider adding more scenarios for teachers in secondary education, and more scenarios over all. Please make the quizzes longer. Thank you for this resource and for the online format - the flexibility is very much appreciated.

Useful material for anyone with an interest in protecting their copyrighted work. Gets a little dry when focusing on only library applications.

While the information was useful, one of the professors had the voice of gravel and was like listening to nails on a chalkboard. The written text is out of date, and not formatted appropriately to modern standards- the second you see 2 spaces after a period, you should know this was written in the last century. Almost all of the "examples" in the course were from 2008 or before with "Youtube" being the most "modern" thing mentioned. For the love of god most of the movies mentioned were from the 90s. This was like watching Boomers talk about by-gone eras. Far better content is available on Youtube for copyright law... which is ironic.
