Copyright and Fair Use LR

11) It really surprised me that students could take a video and edit themselves into it. I answered that this question would be false and was really thrown off when it was true! It doesn't make much sense to me that teachers can't show montages of clips in class, but they can help students edit themselves into a copyrighted movie or show. This would require burning that show, which is apparently legal with the use of an illegal machine, distributing it to students to edit, and then post the finished product on a secure school website, even though no copyright permission has been obtained. All of this goes against everything I thought about copyrights in schools and teacher's uses of copyrighted material. Some pieces of the laws make sense, but then they seem to cancel out or bypass other important laws. It seems as though the rules are quite clear cut, but very hard to piece together.
