Copyright Fair Use Model: Education
[ send me this paper ]
Title 17 of the U.S. Code states copyrights are not infringed in the act of fair use in an educational setting. This includes reproduction of audio and written works used solely for the purpose of education. However, there are provisions to use; it is limited. For example, if an educator copies materials for class use, but then uses that copy to write a journal article, the educator has passed into the realm of copyright infringement as one limitation of Title 17 specifies that the use must be non-profit and not have an effect upon the market of the information used. In order to understand fair use policy, internal policies must be established to inform faculty students and staff the specifics of the copyright laws. Team members are encouraged to understand and comply with the following guidelines. 3 references. jvFairUs.rtf

Correlation Study: First Year Of College
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. High school is an integral component in virtually every aspect of adolescence; not only is it instrumental in academic and life paths but it also sets the stage for social, personal and emotional development. As such, high school becomes a comfort zone for many seniors who have spent the previous four years cultivating friendships, learning about themselves and living in a protective bubble. When the time comes for college, the thought of leaving this cocoon - as well as the safety net of family and home life - to embark upon the outside world can be one of the most harrowing growth experiences an adolescent has to face. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Creating an Online Community College Course for High School Students
[ send me this paper ]
This 7 page report discusses a case study in which a community college wants to create a course for high school seniors in a particular region outlining what students should expect regarding a college education. With an effective Internet presence, the college believes it can help these students understand the challenges of college, how to meet those challenges, and, hopefully, choose their institution as the place to begin their college career. However, marketing the community college is very much secondary to exposing students to topics such as how to choose classes, how to budget both time and finances, and choosing a major.
