Thoughts on the social impacts of information and communication technology policy.
A number of recent stories about higher ed regarding copying and technology to share:
From the copyright department: Librarians React to Lawsuit Against Georgia State U
Also from the copyright department: Universities’ Intellectual Property Stance Criticized
From the plagiarism-not-copyright department: Journals May Soon Use Antiplagiarism Software on Their Authors
Finally, from the wireless in the classroom department: Hey, You! Pay Attention!
John is a PhD candidate at the University of Wisconsin - Madison School of Journalism and Mass Communication. He studies the social impact of media technology law and policy, with a special emphasis on copyright.
John doesn't update his blog often, and many of the thoughts are probably half-baked. While the web has sort of an eternal memory, the current and future reader is urged not to take all of this too seriously.
Think of this blog as "John thinking out loud."
(For more on this idea and why I blog, please see this category.)
