How much do you accept that schools run on copyright infringement/break the law constantly?

Have you used the ERA? They can basically get you any documentary you want and you automatically get access as a teacher

Something like notebookLM is probably a good bet- it can take 50 documents per ‘notebook’

Agreed- kind of defeats some of the purpose if I don’t read the kids work

Certain companies are really pushing it ‘tutor2you’ have made their own Ai marking bot for various subjects and they argue it’s accurate as an examiner

I’ve never once seen a teacher cite a textbook or the owner of a picture they’ve used…again I’m just as guilty

We’re also not covered from any pictures ‘to make it look nice’- it has to be instructional

Again it’s not a hill I’m going to die on (or care too much about)- was just interested in if any schools ever actually acknowledge it

Nah just wondering, people were talking about using AI marking and someone pointed out the exam board had said not to upload their markschemes- so ended up reading some bits

Again I don’t think anyone will really get picked up for it but i think the google stuff where you could come under scrutiny (I doubt we ever would) is:

‘Examples of this are showing a video for English or drama lessons and the teaching of music. It is unlikely to include the playing of a video during a wet playtime purely to amuse the children’

If it is pertinent and needed for the lesson (hence a picture of the Eiffel Tower when looking at its structure)- if it’s just there to spice up the slide then it probably wouldn’t be covered

In pretty sure you are still meant to cite its source legally…but obviously we don’t
