From The Internet: Issues at the Frontier (course wiki)
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Introduction

This course involves using the Internet in novel ways. Some of those ways may involve recording the class sessions and making them available in real time or as archives, and in full or in part, to external audiences -- and soliciting contributions from those audiences. We want to ensure that this experimentation is consonant with participants' privacy expectations. Unless explicitly stated otherwise or agreed below, all content from the class wiki, mailing list, the class time itself, and class-related discussions may be quoted and paraphrased under the Chatham House rule -- i.e. without attribution to the speaker. In other words, it is all right to say "Someone in my IIF class said that..."

Options

For things that can be attributed to individuals, or for which identification with an individual is unavoidable (for instance, video), we have three options; please indicate your choice below or by communicating with the profs --

Blanket permission: Attribution is OK

Everything is okay to share and attribute to relevant individuals.

  • support. I don't think we will be sharing any confidential details amongst ourselves, and this will make it much easier for our work to be spread. I'd even suggest cc-by for all our coursework. Mchua 10:20, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
  • I hereby license all my brilliant pearls of wisdom under this "OK by default" license. Dan Ray 15:51, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
  • This system is fine with me, too. Gwen 19:00, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Attribution must be sought on a case by case basis when class participation or contributions are to be used externally

For those who want to attribute a contribution or post something with identifiable individuals, permission must be sought.

Blanket denial: Attribution is not wanted under any circumstances
