· Teachers who copy chapters from a textbook to avoid purchasing new books
· Teachers who show excerpts from popular films during class
· Students who download term papers from

getapaper.com

· Parents who decorate the PTA newsletter with Disney characters
· Schools that post the passcode to a licensed resource, such as

BrainPOP.com
on the school website
