Lisette,
Do you believe that broader educational fair use exemptions, to the extent
they preclude competition from in-copyright materials, need to be balanced
with public transfers to be equitable?
I agree we should benefit teachers, and I am sure that is what such
exemptions do. But I do not see how it could be equitable to benefit them
at the expense of the authors they recommend.

Hi James,
Not sure I understand your question. If you are asking whether if we have
a broad exception across the EU would there still be financial incentive to
create high quality educational materials, I think the answer is yes. I
think there will remain a demand for not only seperate pieces of
in-copyright materials, but for complete teaching materials, including
method and didactics that publishers (or other parties) can provide. I
believe such an exception would most likely benefit teachers (who likely
fall within the ‘open education’ spectrum) to supplement teaching methods
with contemporary creative works such as newspaper articles, clips of films
etc.
But maybe I misunderstand your meaning.
With kind regards,
Lisette

Lisette,
If there was a general copyright exemption for any educational materials,
would a public transfer be in equity to support the continued demand for
improvements in quality of those materials?

Dear all,
Keeping copyright out of the classroom is one of COMMUNIA's most
important recommendations. Today, within the Best Case Scenarios for
Copyright series we present education exception as it works in Estonia to
benefit education, research, teaching. This exception is crucial to make
ICT and connectivity really useful in education.
Please share the basic facts blogpost:

where a detailed legal study can be found, via your social media and
mailing lists.
Also please keep an eye on our TT (@communia_eu) to share the message if
you want.
I hope you find it interesting and worth spreading! If you have any
questions or comments please do not hesitate to contact us.
