Copyright Flowchart: Can I use it? Yes? No? If This...Then... in Ms. Silvia Tolisano's post targeted an issue that even collegiate level institutions deal with: plagiarism. Instructing in the digital age is beneficial is multiple ways, but like most aspects, obstacles are presented that we must address. A factor Ms. Tolisano discusses in this article is ensuring that educators are well-versed in properly citing others's works and ideas. Teachers should be held accountable in establishing their students's knowledge and respect of copyright. She states that essentially schools should instill a polity but also: 

"-raise awareness of copyright issues in a digital world
-bring relevance to classroom teacher at all levels and 
subject areas in understanding copyright in digital education 
spaces and see it not just as part of the domain of a 
‘technology person”
-help teachers shift from previous practices regarding 
copyrighted material in an analog world
-internalize ethical behavior regarding intellectual property 
available in an online environment"

In Ms. Tolisano's Blogging as a Curation Platform, the focal point was on how blogging as become an intricate part of a student's education. Blogging assists and can broaden a student's horizon. A child develops better communication skills via composition through the platform and organization competence with data they have gathered/interpreted. The student can also prosper by developing digital relationships with individuals that reside in other countries and become exposed to various cultures.
