The Panelists

I’m excited to attend HigherEdCamp Philly this Saturday, from 8:30am until 5pm. I will be hosting a session from 12pm – 1pm, joined by Frank Taney of Buchanan, Ingersoll, & Rooney, and Neil Kleinman, Dean of the College of Media & Communication at the University of the Arts. We will be leading an interactive discussion on legal issues in the new media era. Topics we will discuss, among others, include:

What constitutes fair use of new media in academia?

What changes in perception of fair use have occurred with the modern technology available?

How does one properly cite new media such as blogs, wikis, and social networks?

How do you protect your content and intellectual property in the era of easy plagiarism?

What mechanisms are there for sharing your content?

We encourage audience participation and would love to see you there. We hope you’ll join us in posing the questions that we all face in the new era of modern academia. And after all, how often do you get a chance to ask questions to an attorney… for free?
