Can I copy material from the internet for research?
You can print and/or save material to a disk if it is for your own research or study if the copying is considered fair. Otherwise you must check in the terms and conditions on that website with regards to printing or downloading.
What constitutes research and fair use?
Within the Australian Copyright website (Australian Copyright Council, 2007) 'fair use' is described as
"1. When re-producing text or printed music from a hard copy edition of 10 or more pages, the Act deems that it fair to copy:
-10% of the number of pages; or
-one chapter, if the work is divided into chapters.
2. For text material published in electronic form, it is deemed to be fair to copy;
-10% of the number of words; or
-one chapter, if the work is divided into chapters.
Further details of the act can be found through this link: http://www.copyright.org.au/pdf/acc/infosheets_pdf/g053.pdf/download"
Can students (university or school) use music in videos that they make?
A student may be able to use music in videos that they make for research or study, provided the use is fair. Further details of 'fair use' can be found at http://www.copyright.org.au/g038.pdf

Happily Blogging
I found two educational blogs that i could use to model to my future class an example of effective blogs.
The blog attached here ( http://tyrrellcluster.com.au/blogs/index.php?blog=15 ) is called "Here is the news!" as it allows students to comment on issues raised in the news and fellow students are able to make further comments and provide feedback. This blog is user friendly as it is clearly laid out. This blog also gives clear instruction as to when students need to provide feedback and offers different kinds of roles to play regarding the commenting on issues throughout the week. This blog would be appropriate for late stage 2 and all of stage 3 students as it requires students to follow the news whilst being able to critical analyse their thoughts and create their opinions regarding the current issues at the time.
The second blog attached here ( http://6s2009.globalstudent.org.au/ ) is called "6S 2009" as it is created by the 2009 Year 6 teacher from North Fitzroy Primary School. The teacher uses this blog as a communication tool to parents and students. The teacher has posted works that the students have done, some are paintings, slideshows, videos and photos from their performances etc. The categories include weekly news, excursions, writing etc. This blog would be appropriate for stage 3, however, a blog similar to this can be suited to different stages by changing layout, content and access.
