June 18, 2014 Copyright and Digital Scholarship Session for the Emory Center for Digital Scholarship's HBCU Summer Institute for Digital Scholarship - https://scholarblogs.emory.edu/hbcuinstitute/
This presentation begins with a brief introduction of the history and goals behind copyright. It then explores some of the basics of copyright, including questions about copyright eligibility, copyright duration, registration, obtaining copyright permissions and its distinction from other intellectual property rights (patent, trademark) and plagiarism. Finally, considerable time is spent discussing copyright law's Fair Use Exemption, one of the more confusing -- yet most important -- issues in copyright for student journalists. The presentation includes a number of true-to-life examples that should help students understand where the legal boundaries lie.
This webinar on intellectual property rights is the kick off session for a 6 week MOOC entitled Copyright – DIY led by Mathy Vanbuel from ATiT. During this first 1 hour long session entitled “From the Statute of Anne to Beyoncé” Mathy will provide an introduction as to where our current practices in IPR come from, what the different intellectual property rights are and how they affect all of us one way or the other whether we like it or not. This session and the rest of the MOOC is intended to be a practical introduction for anyone (teacher, writer, artist, student, consumer...) who creates original materials or who uses, reuses, mixes and adapts original materials that were created by others.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere, promising self-driving cars, medical breakthroughs, and new ways of working. But how do you separate hype from reality? How can your company apply AI to solve real business problems?
Here’s what AI learnings your business should keep in mind for 2017.
Study: The Future of VR, AR and Self-Driving CarsLinkedIn
We asked LinkedIn members worldwide about their levels of interest in the latest wave of technology: whether they’re using wearables, and whether they intend to buy self-driving cars and VR headsets as they become available. We asked them too about their attitudes to technology and to the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the devices that they use. The answers were fascinating – and in many cases, surprising.
This SlideShare explores the full results of this study, including detailed market-by-market breakdowns of intention levels for each technology – and how attitudes change with age, location and seniority level. If you’re marketing a tech brand – or planning to use VR and wearables to reach a professional audience – then these are insights you won’t want to miss.
This is a basic look at copyrights. Included is how copyrights work, their purpose, exceptions to copyright and how they compare to other forms of intellectual property.
Many of the resources you wish to use to support your teaching and research are protected by copyright. However, the good news is that there are ways in which you can legitimately use those materials without infringing copyright. This session will give an overview of the licences the university holds, as well as the permitted acts built into copyright law which allow educational establishments to benefit from a suspension of the rules which normally govern the use of copyright protected works.

Caveon Webinar Series: Protecting Tests Using Copyright Law Caveon Test Security
U.S. copyright laws can be used to protect the integrity of your tests and keep your exam from being copied. And when your exam content winds up online, the U.S. Copyright laws can also be used to remove that content from infringing web sites.
Kenneth Horton, from the law firm of Kirton and McConkie, discussed key issues on this important topic. With a technical degree, a business degree (MBA), and a legal degree, Ken provides a multi-disciplinary approach to intellectual property services. These services are enhanced by his constant research into both the legal and strategic aspects of intellectual property required by his teaching position as an associate professor in IP Strategy. Ken exhibits an entrepreneurial flair through investing in—and consulting with—technology-focused companies.
Ken was joined by Senior Web Patroller for Caveon, Cary Straw, who shared other aspects of finding infringing content online.
Learning Objective: Develop an understanding of how an invention can be protected.
At some point in your life, a light bulb above your head shines bright, as you believe you’ve come up with something brilliant, namely an invention. But what now? How do you protect it?
Whether you want to produce and market your invention on your own, or license it to another company, the only way to profit from your invention and to guarantee that no one will steal your idea is to seek patent protection. This seminar will help you gain an understanding of patents and the process of pursuing patent protection of your inventions.
At the end of this seminar, participants will be able to:
a. Explore the pros and cons of pursuing patent protection.
b. Understand the patent application process.
c. Identify options for patent monetization.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
