LESSON
Remix Responsibly

In this hands-on lesson, students discover that creativity isn't about starting from scratch, but responsibly building upon others' ideas through the remix process of copy, transform, and combine. As students create shape and poetry remixes, they learn to balance creative expression with respecting others' work—essential skills for today's digital creators.
