Issues that muddy the waters
In what ways is development of a Web course different from writing books and articles?
Faculty as publisher, university as distributor -- rights and obligations?
Protection for university and faculty against liability claims (eg., copyright infringement)?
Do rights shift if Web materials become a factor in salary increases and promotions?
How is the university protected against faculty “exporting” courses to competing institutions?
What about course development teams? Is the concept of the single creator obsolete?
