Digital Studies Group

The Digital Studies Group (DSG) brings together CUNY faculty members, researchers, and doctoral students interested in a broad range of intellectual, cultural, economic, legal, and pedagogical issues related to the growing impact of digital media on the ways we read, think, teach, learn and entertain ourselves in the United States and across the globe. Beginning in fall 2009, the seminar will meet periodically at The CUNY Graduate Center to hear presentations of ongoing digital media research work, to discuss traditional and online texts on digital media issues, and to explore new digital media approaches to cultural production and to questions of teaching and learning.

  • Copyright and Distance Learning – Webinar for all in CUNY, April 30 @ 2pm

    Posted by Beth Evans on April 15, 2013 at 4:49 pm

    CUNY libraries will be offering a one-hour virtual seminar “How Recent Copyright Court Cases Affect Distance Education: What Educators Need to Know About Copyright” on April 30, 2 pm, at John Jay College (library classroom). The presenter, Linda Enghagen, University of Massachusetts at Amherst is the author of Fair Use Guidelines for Educators. Enghagen will guide attendees through a review of best practices in fair use, including distribution of course material and assignment design. The webinar will show how to establish and implement policies to assure copyright compliance.

    The event will be available live, at one site, at John Jay College on that day. We will have rights to view the recording for thirty days following and we will pass that information on to those interested at a later date, but the live viewing will also include an open discussion after the seminar among attendees on the day of the event.

    This webinar contains important information for all who teach partial or fully online courses or administer online programs at CUNY. Please help in promoting to anyone at your college involved in distance learning, especially administrators and instructional designers.
