We've all probably found a great source (image, video, sound, etc.) and then had to forgo using that perfect source because of copyright concerns. Creative Commons can help you save a lot of time and headaches for several reasons. One is that you can select "safe search," which gives some comfort to those of us working with younger children. Another is that it's easy to see right away if you can use the resource you've found and what kind of, if any, credit you need to give to the creator. See the site for a good explanation of how to use resources legally and comfortably.
Another option is veezle.com. Students can search pretty safely on this site for royalty-free pictures to use.
