Isn't there another aspect of TEACH that is relevant-that is, that it speaks only of distance education courses and not of regular courses that meet in the classroom? The course management system for these 2 types of class might be identical, but I think TEACH addresses only the distance ed, where the course management system constitutes the "classroom" and therefore students need to have the same kinds of materials available as are available to students in a classroom (except, of course, screenings of complete films in a film class, as Jessica notes). Thus if I am teaching a distance-ed course 100% online, I can use not only fair use but also some of the more liberal face-to-face teaching permissions. But if I am teaching a course with 3 contact hours/week complemented by an online site that is basically a "course pack," meant to be consulted as homework and used outside class, it falls outside TEACH.
Or am I mistaken? That would be nice.

The DMCA thing is not part of TEACH. But now it is legal to break encryption for particular purposes, and the use would be covered by TEACH. The amount does not have to be fair (thought it probably would be), just comply with TEACH parameters. TEACH parameters are vague, but they are different than what one would consider for fair use. For example, one does not need to be concerned at all with effect or nature for TEACH as long as the other parameters are met. Just with the amount being appropriate to the pedagogical goal and "reasonable and limited."

You do want to make sure the clip be brief enough to be considered "Fair Use" and that it comes from a legal source.

That's all. The laws relating to the specific USES of those clips are another matter altogether. Generally, I think it would be considerably safer to use the clips in, say, a face-to-face classroom presentation, than the uses you cite. On the other hand, if your institution has a somewhat higher tolerance for risk, I'd say putting the clips (a limited number and short) up on a password protected course web site for the short-term might also fly (again...under fair use, not DMCA). gary handman > Would the DCMA "Exemptions from Prohibition on Circumvention of > Technological Measures that Control Access to Copyrighted Works", > Section > 201 (a)(1) title 17, US Code allow a professor to put a short clip > from a DVD on an electronic course page?
