Digital Copyright Canada is first out to note that Access Copyright has pulled the plug on Captain Copyright. The Captain generated enormous criticism earlier this year when the lessons, which targeted children as young as Grade One, came to light. Access Copyright suggests that it is too difficult in the current climate to develop balanced copyright teaching materials that will be used in the classroom. For those teachers and librarians who requested "literally hundreds of learning kits", I suggest taking a look at the Learning Commons project.
