Context of the Standard |
As students start to work with different artifacts (reference materials, resources, etc.) they should understand that these sources of information were created by others. Authors, illustrators, and programmers are responsible for the creation of many sources of information that are used in the classroom and at home. As students choose to use, reference, or modify some of these sources in their own work, they are expected to recognize the original creator of the source. This practice should be reiterated throughout a student’s K-12 education and beyond. Other topics related to copyright are plagiarism, fair use, and properly citing online sources. Knowledge of specific copyright laws is not an expectation at this level. This standard supports English standards as they learn about plagiarism in writing. Students are introduced to these concepts but are not expected specific citing practices in third grade. |
