Hi, I tend to be a little biased when it comes to JISC materials, but I think the copyright material on the JISC Collections website might be useful here: http://jisc-casper.org/public_repository/schools.html (although it mentions 'schools' in the link, it's definitely relevant to all) ;-) Kenji Lamb e-Learning Advisor (e-Assessment) JISC RSC Scotland North & East email: [log in to unmask] tel: 0131 559 4779 (TypeTalk/Textphone users: 18001 0131 559 4779) web: www.rsc-ne-scotland.ac.uk RSC Scotland North & East Edinburgh's Telford College 350 West Granton Road Edinburgh EH5 1QE -----Original Message----- From: Virtual Learning Environments [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Adam Marshall Sent: 13 January 2010 09:31 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [VLES] copyright Does anybody have any statements for staff about copyright in the context of a VLE, ie, what is and what is not acceptable? Do people take the view that it is different when material is within a VLE and is not (generally) 'public' but is restricted to a small group by username and password? There's some obvious cases that we know about, eg, CLA licenced material that has been scanned in, Creative Commons licenced material, documents that have been written specifically for the course by institutional staff members, but what about the classic situation where a lecturer has put their Power Point slides into the VLE and the slides contain photos or diagrams that have been copied from other websites etc. I'm sure everybody does this but do any institutions give guidelines as to what is and is not acceptable and does anybody police uploaded material or insist that a 'copyright declaration' is completed for all uploaded material? adam ***************** List information: ***************** Remember - replies go by default to the entire list.
