The TEACH Act expands the scope of
educators' rights to perform and display works and to make the copies integral
to such performances and displays for digital distance education, making the
rights closer to those we have in face-to-face teaching. But there is still
a considerable gap between what the statute authorizes for face-to-face teaching
and for distance education. For example, as indicated above, an educator
may show or perform any work related to the curriculum, regardless of the medium,
face-to-face in the classroom - still images, music of every kind, even
movies. There are no limits and no permission required. Under 110(2),
however, even as revised and expanded, the same educator would have to pare
down some of those materials to show them to distant students. The audiovisual
works and dramatic musical works may only be shown as clips -- "reasonable
and limited portions," the Act says.

Section 110's role in the balance of
interests has always been to permit educators to share works with their
students, to show others' works in class.
