- Hi Edubloggers,
Today, I am going to be answering a important question. What pictures can we use and how can we properly attribute it.
Thanks to sites like Google, there are many photos making the question, which ones can you use legally? Many people would find a regular photo on Google and give references. This is not enough since there might be copyright infringements. Unless you specifically ask the owner of the photo (who might not respond or accept your request,) you need to use photos that are copyleft or have Creative Commons which you just need a reference to use. In a normal situation, you could purchase photos, but because of school, it is not recommended.
You may be thinking is it necessary, but how would you feel if you did something and you weren’t given proper credit or at least a mention? Probably annoyed, right.
In the future, it is easier to give credit then just copy a picture. It will be worth it and you won’t get in trouble.
Seeya,
