The TEACH Act and Distance Learning: Doing the Digital

On October 30th, ARL and EDUCAUSE will offer "The TEACH Act and Distance 
Learning: Doing the Digital" to give viewers via Webcast direct access 
to some of the prominent experts in the TEACH Act arena. The Technology, 
Education, and Copyright Harmonization (TEACH) Act was enacted in late 
2002. This new law redefines the terms and conditions for the use of 
copyrighted materials in online learning environments, providing both 
new opportunities but also new responsibilities. Every nonprofit 
educational institution needs to be fully aware of the provisions of 
this important new law.

Donna L. Ferullo, Director of University Copyright Office at Purdue 
University, will begin the session with an overview of the TEACH Act and 
some of its implications for educators, librarians, and administrators. 
Ms. Ferullo will then moderate a panel discussion with Peggy Hoon 
(Scholarly Communication Librarian, North Carolina State University) and 
Rodney Petersen (Policy Analyst and Security Task Force Coordinator, 
EDUCAUSE) focusing on practical approaches for implementing the various 
provisions of the TEACH Act. The panel will also respond to viewer 
questions.

Webcasts provide affordable training that allow for individual or group 
participation on your campus, incorporating live video, PowerPoint 
slides, and interactive question-and-answer discussion to make the most 
of this learning event. In addition, after the Webcast, registrants will 
be able to view a frequently-asked-questions list compiled from the 
discussion.

Target audience:
+ Instructional designers and distance education providers
+ College and university general counsel and administrators
+ Faculty who teach
+ Librarians who want to stay current with copyright law developments, 
particularly those who work with teaching faculty to develop online 
course curriculum

This Web cast is being designed and managed by ARL's Office of 
Leadership and Management Services. OLMS has over 20 years of experience 
in the design and delivery of leadership programs. This is OLMS's 
premiere Webcast.
