Intellectual Property in Collaborative Composition

Preview:

DESCRIPTION

When students compose collaboratively using tools like wikis, individual contributions blur with those of other students. Plagiarism is often a problem when ownership and student contributions are clearly defined; collaboration blurs intellectual property lines, as well. This presentation will explore the acute challenges presented by online collaborative composition and suggest perspectives that can bring awareness to intellectual property and make better use of the online medium.
