Creative Commons is very valuable information that I had not paid attention to before.  It makes it much easier to decipher how to use internet content.  The chapter states that students need guidance to understand the fair use doctrine.  That is true, but not just students, everyone using the information needs to understand it.  Reviewing this information in business and/or career tech classes would be valuable and a good thing to do at the beginning of the year or semester of new students.  Normally I see the internet policy come home with my high school son for him and a parent to sign.  It would be important to incorporate this information along with the signing of that document so that students know not only safety in cyberspace but also how copyright information applies.
