Copyright for teachers is a fine line. Powerpoints created using informaiton taken from other places should only be allowed to be used in a class once but most are used for multiple periods and years. Everything that a teacher uses should be sourced for their own protection. I have seen teachers break the law by showing certain videos without a permit and by not siting their sources for powerpoints. It is common for people to technically break copyright but normally on very small scales and for personal use. You-tube is a good example of copyright laws being broken but they try to keep videos off that are not lawful.
It is a teacher's job to teach copyright. It could and should be taught with plajorism becasuse copyright is just a larger form of plajorism. Everyone diserves to have the credit for their own work. And I know that I will teach it in my classroom even though the lines of copyright are hard to define.

Bad Digital Portfolio
http://www.slideshare.net/dmtaylorslcc/digital-portfolio-example
This says that it is an example of a digital portfolio but i have no idea how it really is. The slides were poorly put together on top of it. Many of the words were unreadable. It also said that the last time the portfolio was updated had been two years ago and it is supposed to be a living document and by the looks of it it died. This was an absolutely terrible example of a digital portfolio because I could not even tell its true purpose except for the fact that it was an example of work but for what we may never know.

Good Digital Portfolio

I think that this was a good digital portfolio because he stated what his purpose was for making the portfolio on the opening page and explained to the user how to use it correctly. He also mentioned where the original photographs came from and then explained under them what he had done to change each one. Finally he said where the photographs had been displayed so that we could get a purpose for why the piece was created and it gave him credentials.

Class Video
The video that we made for class went decently because we planned everything beforehand. The hardest part was finding a dorm room to shoot in since none of us lived in a dorm. We could of planned the order of a few shots better so that editing would have been easier. I will take the skills of actually working with editing a video which is something I had never done before. It will help me plan a different type of project in my future.
