The Fair Use Exemptions under copyright law for educational use are totally inapplicable. These fair use exemptions address use in a classroom - not use posted for the world to see, If the blog is closed, password protected to only the class members, these fair use exemptions would still be applicable - but not for any material posted openly. There is another Fair Use Exemption - this is reproducing for the purpose of review and criticism. So a portion of a book or song could legitimately be reproduced if the intent is to analyze this. But not simply for illustration purposes. I will have a guide prepared by next fall that addresses all of these issues. Also other concerns of student publication which includes speech that is harmful of others - defamation, invasion of privacy.
