Grade 6 · Writing · Lesson 31

Credit media assets and music

Every image, sound clip, piece of music, video segment, and font you use in a media project was created by someone. Using these assets without credit is plagiarism — even when you find them online for free. Crediting media means naming the creator, stating the license, and linking the source. This lesson covers how to do that correctly for the most common asset types.
