Figurative Language: Similes
(Common Core Lesson) (2015)
by Appucator
For this multimedia presentation, the creator defines similes and provides multiple examples using images and text with a background song from multiples sources. While the creator cites many of these sources in the credits, the citations are incomplete and some are missing altogether (e.g. picture of Mark Twain). I am unsure which sources are from copyrighted works, which have Creative Commons licenses, and which are part of public domain because the creator does not provide proper attribution. Although some sources, such as excerpts from authors written before 1922 are part of the public domain and are not subject to copyright, others are contemporary and do not have clear citations (e.g. author/copyright holder, date of publication, applicable links to content). On the surface this video appears to apply to fair use principles (educational, instructional use), but upon closer inspection it lacks the thoroughness of proper citations.
