| Abstract: | The article presents the authors' insights on the copyright issue in the digital age, which concerns the academic field. The authors say that instead of promoting knowledge, the act of putting materials for teaching on the web can undermine such goal. The authors suggest that when considering the blanket policies for posting such materials online, it is important to also recognize the cost to faculty administrators and members if ever external partisan groups decide to make charges. The authors add that the issue concerning course content's recording and distribution includes academic dishonesty cases. |
