As a student, you can use images from an academic journal in your presentation under the "fair dealing" exception for research and education. This allows for the reproduction of copyrighted material without prior permission from the rights holder as long as a certain amount of text is accompanying the image(s) and that their use does not negatively impact upon the potential earnings of the journalist/author. In order to ensure you stay within legal boundaries we recommend using small numbers of images but be mindful that larger quantities could warrant asking permission directly from the copyright owner/journal first. Alternatively, there are many open access digital journals which offer freedom to reuse their content so it's best to check before hand with any particular journal's copyright guidelines. Good luck!

As a student, you can legally use some images from an academic journal in your presentation as long as you follow the principles of fair dealing. Fair dealing allows the reproduction of limited portions of a work without permission from the copyright owner or paying a licensing fee, so long as that reproduction is for purposes such as research, private study, education or satire.
