10.17 - TED Talk: Larry Lessig on Copyright

Today, we resumed work with the TED Talk we began watching yesterday by Lawrence Lessig on copyright law. At the beginning of class, we reviewed the notes people had taken so far. We talked about how notes could be kept strong or improved as we resumed our TED Talk today from the start.

We were able to finish watching this TED Talk and then everyone had some time to wrap up their notes. These notes were then used by people to analyze Lessig's use of appeals throughout his talk.

In the last five minutes of class, we discussed people's responses to Lessig's talk.
