Hello everyone:
An expert I am not on the subject of copyright issues relating to higher education, but I was asked, and did give a recent presentation on the subject. (As I am sure many of you can relate, as the only business law professor on staff, I am expected to know all points legal :-)).
Anyway, an interesting discussion came about at my presentation and I'd like to throw it out to the forum.
As many of you are aware, perhaps the most definitive, albeit not exhaustive, guidance for on-line course development can be found in the Copyright Offices Guidelines. However, these guidelines as they relate to distance education specifically do not apply to asynchronous course delivery on-line, only to real time delivery. Soooooo, the following question is one that we lawyers just love: What is the definition of "real time" course delivery? Could it be defined as a semester long course as a reasonable interpretation?
Look forward to your opinions.
Lori
