Explanation:

• Aidan: Citing a source for a school report is fair use (scholarly use, proper attribution).
• Connor: Posting an entire poem without permission is not fair use (excessive use, no authorization).
• Hayden: Using an image the owner allowed public use of is fair (permission - based, public domain - like use).
• Abigail: Using an image to promote a product without permission is commercial use, not fair use.
• Wyatt: Following the author's request (linking) when using information is fair (complying with author's terms, proper use).
• Ella: Using a small quotation (limited use, for commentary/use on website) is fair use (quotation, transformative or limited use).
• Devin: Quoting without attribution is not fair use (attribution is part of fair use etiquette, and using without saying the author is improper).
