Fair Use Guidelines for Educational Multimedia
http://www.libraries.psu.edu/mtss/fairuse/dalziel.html
"The lack of fair use guidelines for educational multimedia places a huge burden on educators who want to take advantage
of today's new teaching technologies. According to the Copyright Act of 1976, an educator must obtain copyright permission
to duplicate or change an image in any way. Consequently, digitizing an image to incorporate it into a multimedia project requires
faculty to obtain permission for each copyrighted piece they use in their program. When one multimedia production can easily
contain over 2,000 copyrighted works, paying royalty fees and obtaining formal permission to use each piece can be costly
and time consuming. Often it is impossible to track down who owns the rights to a certain photograph or other piece of work."

"The Media Literacy Activities ask students to critically examine and analyze the multimedia projects of others, especially those
they find in the real world around them. Frequently the media literacy activities complement production activities where students
work on their own multimedia projects, as in the pair Audience Influence ( literacy ) and Defining Your Audience ( production ).
The Media Literacy Activities are intended to help students develop high-quality multimedia projects and use them responsibly. "

Is there any evidence that multimedia is more effective for delivering instruction than traditional methods?
Is there more than anecdotal evidence to show that the educational results justify
the cost and effort of incorporating multimedia technology into the classroom?
To help answer these questions, we have a growing body of research devoted to assessing
the effectiveness of multimedia in all levels of education, including corporate and military training.
