Questions about digitized VHS and use in face to face classes

["Lynda Noland" <lnoland@xxxxxxx>]

Hello-

 

An instructor at my institution has had some clips from a movie digitized
for use in his Blackboard online class. He now would also like to open the
online Blackboard account in two face to face classes and access the same
film clips. He hopes to use these clips for multiple terms. The amount of
material is about 25 minutes of a 120 minute movie called "My Cousin Vinny".

 

I am really not clear that these two different uses would be allowable. One
use is Teach Act, but the others would have to fall under Fair Use I
believe. Can anyone help?
