Copyright in the Balance: LJ Talks with Lawrence Lessig

Copyright in the Balance: LJ Talks with Lawrence Lessig
I really don't like the idea of bringing the handgun debate into the copyright devate, even if the analogy is a good one. In this interview Lessig argues, "clearly there are bad uses of the handgun. But for some reason we don't entirely ban the use of the handgun. If we don't ban technologies that kill people, I don't think we should ban technology that could be used for lots of completely legitimate purposes."

2002 Workplace Training Report

2002 Workplace Training Report
It's a sizable survey but sponsored by an e-learning company, so the results are inherently suspect. That said, about half the employers who responded to this web based survey said they use technology in training, while two thirds said they would like to. More...

E-learn and Earn

E-learn and Earn
Short article that raises the question of whether companies can make money offering e-learning. The answer is that they can, but with stipulations. The author cites successful entities such as the University of Phoenix, DeVry and Strayer Education to show that it could happen. More...

Faculty Perceptions Regarding Issues of Civility in Online Instructional Communication

Faculty Perceptions Regarding Issues of Civility in Online Instructional Communication
Interesting article reporting the results of a survey of 39 articles regarding civility in online discourse (I wish this type of article would attempt to get a more meaningful sample). The primary finding appears to be that while online civility is widely thought to be a problem, it is practice not a problem, with most students avoiding flame wars and sticking to the issues. More...

Cut-and-Paste Can Be Sticky

Cut-and-Paste Can Be Sticky
The point of this article is to suggest that sites that cut and paste from original content to create their listings may be skirting the edge of copyright. The discussion concentrates on site FAQs (an odd choice, because the judgement was that the copying was not a copyright violation) but it could equally be applied to all sites. More...
