 When someone has a copyright for their work, they have the right to use it or distribute it to whomever they please, and if someone uses it, they must give credit to the original owner. Fair use is a set of guidelines that allows users to copy materials for non-profit educational purposes. Fair use depends on how the work is used, how much of it is used, and how its use affects its value. As a teacher, I would have my students cite all the work they use and educate the students more on the laws and consequences of not abiding by the rules. One of the  technology implementation issues that stood out to me was lack of funding. This is because I believe you do not need money to get an education. I feel that part of a teacher's job is to be creative and come up with new ways of teaching the students. Decreased Productivity was another one that stood out to me because again, creativity comes in. If students are bored and not doing work or learning anything, maybe the teacher should com

 Hey everyone! To start off, I'd like to share a little bit about myself. I am a Computer Science major here at FSU. I am 19 years old, have my AA degree, and would like to go for my master's. I just recently moved into my sorority house and so far am having a blast and making tons of new friends. In my free time, I love playing super Mario bros, watching tik toks, and jamming out in the car. I feel that technology can be used in many ways to make education more fun or even easier. For example, Kahoot. Many people know about this game. It keeps everyone interested in the topic and helps teach the material even if you don't realize it. Another good thing that I've seen to come from technology in classrooms is a wider variety of material. If you don't know what I mean, take a look at the fsu library database. They have more books than you can imagine right at your fingertips. One personal learning network that I use is canvas. Through canvas, you can do assignments, t
