Observant readers will notice Session 3 is outstanding. You are the missing link! We invite all readers to consider creating a short video to introduce the session on Copyright: What educators can legally copy in an online world. You will find instructions<http://wikieducator.org/Copyright_for_Educators/Video_signpost>on the video signpost page for this session.
