Western+Australia

You have entered cyber-region of Australia and are now in the cyber-country of: **Western Australia** You have a mission to learn about **Respecting Creative Work** dealing with:

**// Copyrights & Wrongs //** Your job, if you chose to accept this mission, is to complete as many "**//Activities"//** below that will allow you to earn up $20 American Dollars. Remember, to earn that many American dollars you will have to complete at least 2 (//two//) "Activities"

=Activity #1 = **Imagine** that you want a photo to be freely used by all, without people having to request permission. You would then release the photo into the public domain, which allows others to use your photo however they want to because it is no longer protected by copyright. **Copyrights** don’t last forever, so works often count as “public domain” after a certain time period. Works from the U.S. government are also in the public domain.

**If** you created a picture, poem, or video and posted it online, what do you think you would do? **Would** you make people get your permission every time they used the work, use a Creative Commons license, or would you put it in the public domain?

**Explain** your choice and **write** it up in a summary format and post on your Travel Logs under the discussion tab; Intellegence Activities and title your post; "It's My Photo".

[Worth upto $5 America Dollars]

 * Activity #2 **

**You will** be “__**mad men**__” in this activity. //(The term “mad men” is shorthand for “Madison Avenue ad men,” who were advertising executives who worked on Madison Avenue in New York City during the 1950s and 1960s. It is also the name of a popular television show that began running in 2007.)// You mission is to decide on a photo to use for an advertising campaign. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 10pt;"> <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 10pt;">**Advertising** is a commercial purpose, so fair use does not apply. In order for advertising executives to use a photograph, they need to do one of the following things:
 * <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 10pt;">They can use a photograph for which they already own the copyright.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 10pt;">They can get permission from the copyright holder to use that photo for commercial purposes (and pay any fee the copyright holder might charge).
 * <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 10pt;">They can use a photo that is in the public domain.

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 10pt;">In addition to considering the copyright status of the photo, you will also need to **consider** the original intent of the creator and the effectiveness of the photo for their ad campaign.

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 10pt;">**First** analyze and answer the questions about each photo before you make a decision. You will need to defend your choices.
