Copyright laws were first established in the United States in 1790, as part of the Constitutional protection for artists and writers. It wasn't until the late 1880s, however, that an international effort was made to unify the copyright laws of participating countries. This was the famous Berne Convention, which was only partially successful at first. The United States, a major contributor of copyrighted works
What Is Not Protected by Copyright? Several categories of material are generally not eligible for federal copyright protection. These include among others: • Works that have not been fixed in a tangible form of expression (for example, choreographic works that have not been notated or recorded, or improvisational speeches or performances that have not been written or recorded) • Titles, names, short phrases, and slogans; familiar symbols or designs; mere variations of typographic ornamentation, lettering, or coloring; mere listings of ingredients or contents • Ideas, procedures, methods, systems, processes, concepts, principles, discoveries, or devices, as distinguished from a description, explanation, or illustration • Works consisting entirely of information that is common property and containing no original authorship (for example: standard calendars, height and weight charts, tape measures and rulers, and lists or tables taken from public documents or other common sources)

Plagiarism is not a new phenomenon, but given the proliferation of easily accessible electronic resources in recent times, it has become so much easier for students to ‘cut and paste’ slabs of text. This can sometimes lead to assignments being submitted that are inadequately referenced or, worse still, assignments being submitted that are largely (or entirely) the work of someone else. This paper critiques the various strategies currently being employed to stamp out plagiarism. These include the use of the various proprietary and freeware packages available for the electronic detection of plagiarism, and honour codes that incorporate punitive systems to discredit plagiarists. The paper concludes by arguing for an integrated approach founded upon a commitment, at an institutional level, to assessment regimes that reward critical analysis rather than content regurgitation. Importantly, ‘authentic assessment’ that engages students is deemed far more likely to achieve the desired results. Electronic media, used effectively, can assist in this endeavour.
Copyright:Does Thailand law protect foreign copyrighted work? Yes, Thailand protect all country copyrighted work. Thailand copyright law recognizes copyrighted works recorded in foreign jurisdictions provided that the creator is a national, resident or first published the work in a member country of the Berne Convention or the Trade Related Aspects of International Property Rights (TRIPs).
Foreign copyright holders still may wish to record the work in Thailand as a recordation certificate at the Department of Intellectual Property Department will assist in any future enforcement actions.
Google to highlight Web's need for speed http://news.cnet.com/8301-17939_109-10271077-2.html?tag=newsEditorsPicksArea.0
Website designers need to test their creations on low-bandwidth devices with minimal resources: a 2.5G cellphone, for example. That's the way much of the world views the Internet anyhow. The Internet's future is not about desktop computers on broadband Internet. It's all about handheld devices running on the crappiest wireless network in existence. Google has already spent a great deal of time over the last year or so evangelizing technologies such as HTML 5 and JavaScript, pointing toward those improvements as a way of making the Web faster and more enjoyable. Speed has long been a primary goal of Google's search engine, with the company often boasting--in contrast to most Internet companies--that Google's goal is to get you onto and off of its domain as fast as possible.
Title: Beyond Blu-Ray: 2,000 movies on one disc Content: Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne, Australia has discovered and created disc drive that can hold 1.6terabyte of data or about 2000 movies. This was created by adding a fourth and fifth dimension to an optical disc which creates a range of different colored wavelengths that can read the same physical location. Current DVDs use a red laser, while Blu-Ray DVDs naturally use a blue laser. However, it will take another 5 years before the release of the disc officially though it has already signed an exclusive agreement with Samsung. However, the question is whether it would be of much use in the consumer market or not?
Title: Responsible Use of Technology Resources Comments: This article is very important for technology users. With the increase in the use of technology and it being easily accessible, the rights of producers are highly being abused. A clear understanding of copyrights and its importance would save a lot of trouble for producers. Like the article gives the criteria and its acceptable use, I think that makes it easy for consumers, provides access for certain requirements. We must not download copyrighted stuff from the internet, following the rules works.
A comparison of online and teacher-directed instruction: On-task behavior of students with emotional behavioral disorders by O'Donnell, Daniel E.,
This study compared the on-task activity of students with emotional/behavioral disorders when they were engaged in an online class to their on-task behavior when they were in a face-to-face class. Using momentary time sampling, two observers recorded at five-minute intervals a "1" for students who were on task and a "0" for students who were not. Eight students were observed in the normal classroom for 15 periods. The 40-minute periods were divided in 20-minute segments and the class was divided into two groups, one group spending the first 20 minutes online and then changing to a face-to-face class. The second group spent the first 20 minutes in a face-to-face class and then switched to online. The online program chosen for the class covered the same material the certified special-education teacher was covering in her face-to-face class. Using a Genmod (Generalized linear model) procedure from SAS (Statistical Analysis System) the study shows that the students observed were consistently more on task when they were online.
