7 - Faculty and Family Website
I was surprised that this one was allowed - it seems to me like any project that uses copyright material without permission shouldn't be on the web.
10 - Clipart and Music Lesson Plan
This one half-surprised me. I understand not using music taken from file sharing in a lesson plan. But publicly available things like WebQuests have clipart all over them, yet they can be accessed by anybody - not only teachers. Why is sharing a lesson plan any different?
11 - Frontier Homes
I think this one's a stretch. I don't see the instructional value of "making fun of the spoiled family from California."
12 - Movie Rental Ripping
I was really surprised about this one. To see my thoughts on movie ripping, see my longer response.
I was somewhat surprised about this one. I'm glad that it does work both ways. It definitely lends itself to making the Web a place of intellectual exchange.
14 - Disney VHS
As much as I know it's not covered under Fair Use, this one makes me angry, if only because it's just one location change away from being considered legal. If a local parent offered to host a "party" for younger siblings, then it would have been fine (or at least spared the taboo of inappropriate use).
18 - Ethnic CD
This one could have used a little more explanation in the answer. Royalty-free music, to the best of my knowledge, is a little hard to find. I'd like to see that chart on page 32 of this magazine.
20 - Science Fair Multimedia
This item made me angry too. The answer seems to imply that not only can the school not sell the CD (which I agree makes sense), but that they cannot give the CD away to students, as that might account as "wider distribution."
