Dear colleagues, can you please tell me if it�s legal to scan activities from a book and post them as worksheets without adapting them?

It isn�t legal. Report it and Victor will remove it.

Maybe they don�t know...
Not all new members read the F.A.Q...
I�m included... Throughthe time I realized how this web works...
You can use whatever you want of other autors...(I learned that in college)...
But of course that is ilegal if you don�t give the source |

as we are not professional enough to draw and paint our own pictures, its quite normal to use pictures from internet or books, but one importatnt point is that we should avoid scanning , the activities should be our own work, otherwise just scanning the whole page is not morally good.
to sum up, use pictures but do not copy the activities, create your own :)

you�re right Miameto, I�ve already scanned a picture from a book for one my worksheets but I�ve adapted the text and the exercises my own way. In this situation, the files posted by Iara are entire copies of the book and there are no credits. the number of the page at the bottom must have been erased using a picture management program. |
