Call for Papers

Temple University invites participation in an online conference to be
held April 17 through May1, 2001.

Intellectual Property and Digital Information in Higher Education:
Problems and Solutions

New media technologies have expanded the traditional classroom,
providing new methods of delivering educational content. As a result,
issues of intellectual property have gained prominence and caused much
debate among educators, administrators, librarians, legalists, and
others. Questions regarding who owns online course materials and what
actually comprises an online course, along with a multitude of other
concerns, are currently provoking thoughtful discussion in the academy
and beyond.

We invite educators, academics and policy makers, legal scholars and
practitioners, and creators and publishers of educational software and
content to submit papers for the conference. Please visit the conference
website http://www.temple.edu/virtualconference
 for information on how to submit a paper. You may also register for the
conference via the website.

Conference Dates: Online sessions begin April 17, 2001 and end May 1,
2001

Submission Deadline: March 1, 2001
Registration: February 1 – April 2, 2001
