To protect creators and to support freedom of information, copyright is enshrined in law. Did you know that there are also exceptions in that law for education?

In an educational environment, texts, images, video and sound are used. Whether you are a student, teacher or researcher: everyone comes into contact with copyright. Think, for example, of correctly mentioning the source in assignments or teaching materials, of rules for reimbursements when using material of others in your lessons, of publishing an article or making a video. What's involved?
