It is a myth that material (text/images etc) on the Internet isn't protected by copyright. Copyright protection is automatic. Students are permitted to copy images for educational purposes ie Book trailer presentation to class. However, if this work is made available to the general public eg Uploaded to YouTube then the Educational Use Statutory Licensing does not apply.

The "Australian Government has appointed Copyright Agency to manage the 'statutory licence' in the Copyright Act that allows educational institutions to copy and share text and images for educational purposes."(Copyright Agency, 2014)
