Up, Up and Away? (TM)
In this lesson students encounter the key concepts of intellectual property, learning the difference between copyright and trademark and coming to understand how these affect how media products are created and sold.
Getting the goods ethically
One of the most common ethical decisions kids face online relates to how they access and use content like music, games and videos.

Stay on the Path Lesson Four: Scavenger Hunt
