Question

tori is producing a slide presentation for a basketball banquet. she goes online and finds the perfect song from a local musician and photographs of the team from a parent’s website.
what must tori do to use these materials in her presentation?
○ she should download the materials and use them freely because they are online.
○ she should download the materials and give credit to those who produced them.
○ she should avoid downloading and using the materials because they are copyrighted.
○ she should avoid downloading and using the materials because they are plagiarized

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option:

• The first option is incorrect because using online materials freely without permission ignores copyright and attribution rules.
• The second option is correct. When using others' creative works (like a musician's song or a parent's photographs), giving credit (attribution) is a proper practice to respect intellectual property while still being able to use the materials for a non - commercial, appropriate purpose like a team banquet presentation.
• The third option is too extreme. Just because materials are copyrighted doesn't mean they can never be used. With proper attribution or permission, use can be allowed.
• The fourth option is incorrect. The materials are not necessarily plagiarized. Plagiarism is using someone's work as your own without attribution, but the materials here are the original works of the musician and the parent, so they aren't plagiarized in themselves.

Answer:

B. She should download the materials and give credit to those who produced them.
