Who is the Copyright in Practice poster for?
Copyright in Practice belongs to the Communications & Media section rather than to a school year, because humanities is not something one grade owns. Anyone learning media law & ethics can pin it up — a beginner, a student mid-course, or someone revising years later.
When should you use the Copyright in Practice poster?
Before publishing an image, clip or extract you did not create. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Copyright in Practice belongs on the wall where that humanities work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.
What other posters go with Copyright in Practice?
AI in the Newsroom, Conflicts of Interest and Reporting Courts sit alongside Copyright in Practice in the Communications & Media section.

Is the Copyright in Practice poster free to download and print?
Yes. Copyright in Practice downloads as a free PDF with no account, no email and no watermark, like everything else in the Communications & Media section. Print as many copies as you like for a home, a classroom, a library or a tutoring group; reselling the file is the only thing the licence rules out.Read the licence
What size does the Copyright in Practice poster print at?
Copyright in Practice is a vector PDF laid out for US Letter, and prints on A4 with Fit to page — the same file, no separate download. Because every mark on it is drawn rather than photographed, it stays sharp enlarged to A3, A2 or A1 at a copy shop. Colour carries emphasis only, so a greyscale print of Copyright in Practice loses nothing.Printing guide
