24. What are the copyright implications for sharing material on Perusall?

The considerations for sharing materials on Perusall are similar to the considerations for sharing material on a learning management system such as LEARN. You may share copyright-protected material on Perusall if one of the following situations applies:

22. May I include links to videos from a free platform such as YouTube or Vimeo, or embed the videos on a learning management system such as LEARN?

Videos from a free online service should be used only if you have a reasonable belief that they were uploaded legally. A good way to check this is to look at what account posted a video. For example, if the official account for BBC News or the producer of a documentary uploaded a video, the content is more likely to be a legal copy. If an account belonging to an individual who does not appear to be connected to a project uploads a copy of a full-length feature film, it is likely not a legal copy.

19. May I scan a print journal article or a book chapter into a PDF and post the file on a learning management system such as LEARN?

As long as you adhere to the amounts that may be copied under fair dealing you may scan and post it on a learning management system such as LEARN. See the Fair Dealing Advisory for copying limits. It’s important to note that fair dealing does not allow you to scan material and add it to a website unless that website is password-protected and restricted to students enrolled in your course.

18. May I post examples of my students’ work on my course shell on a learning management system such as LEARN, or on my personal website?

You may post examples of student workk only if you have the student’s permission. Under Policy 73: Intellectual Property Rights, students own the copyright to the work they create. The University does have the right to make copies of the work for academic purposes, but this right does not extend to making the work available online.
