Educational Technology and Copyright Law

After reading this article, I can see that the copyright law is a huge topic in today's world.  Not many teenagers know what the term copyright means to start off with.  For example, people might wonder, "Can I use this picture from the Internet for my project?"  In most cases, the answer is 'Yes'. If you are writing or drawing random things in a notebook or something, it is automatically yours.  You might say it's even copyrighted.  With the copyright privelege, you can now continue the random work you just created, show the piece of work to others, and even create more to give to your peers.
When talking about the Copyright Law itself,  no one can use your piece of workthat you created without your permission.  You created the piece of work and you choose what you want to do with it.  The same situation goes for images.  Mostly all the images you encounter in the Internet has its' own kind of license.  This does not mean you cannot use the image but it means you must give full credit to the owner of the image even if it's a global app or a singular person.  In other words, to sum this entire article, most of the pictures you find in the Internet can be used for your own satisfatcion.
