Who Is Protecting Your Privacy?!

Anything that can be said, written, shown and, or heard in public, are subject to an infringement.  Your rights to original creativity and intellectual property may even be violated, and at the same time you are allowing your privacy to be invaded. 

Many people may not be aware of the fact that everyone has individual rights, as creators and copyright owners.  But, this toolkit will serve as a useful insight resource that will continue to educate students, faculty and staff on the interests of copyright, copyright infringement, derivative works, intellectual property, personal rights violations and expectations for privacy and safety.   

When you don't know what your rights are, you can be easily treated any kind of way.  Protect your thoughts and secure your privacy!

Evaluation

     The resources that have been provided here in this toolkit are motivational as well as engaging.  The

resources are educational and informational in nature and shed light to issues that all need to be

concerned about.  This information will help students become more aware of past, present, and future

issues of ownership and rights that have been silently been ignored and happening behind the scenes. 

Many people have not been aware that their own intellectual property rights have been invaded for years. 

Now that more information surrounding copyright, fair use, personal rights, and privacy personal and

original creativity has surfaced, more people are having conversations about the issues included on a

regularly.

     On the other hand,  we are not only victims of rights infringement, but, have also been infringers of

others' ownership as well, unbeknownst.  This resourceful information has been provided in this online

toolkit concerning their individual rights.  It will help students to be more vigilant and informed users of

resources, knowing how to use resources correctly, and how much of the resource they can use in

several different forms.  Students will understand the legal and illegal ramifications of infringement and

evasion of privacy.  The students will leave from this online toolkit with a sense of understanding about

their personal rights and the value of their intellectual property. 

Conclusion

          This WebQuest resource hosts several pages of categorized information.  The introduction that was

developed provides an overview summarizing the culmination of concepts that were learned throughout

the progression of this course dealing with ethics and legal issues.  It provides a list of 15 Internet

resources such as YouTube videos, images and websites, that were considered valuable on the topics

copyright, fair use, personal rights violations, intellectual property, personal rights and privacy.   I have

described my own process that was taken for me to efficiently and effectively create this toolkit with the

found information.  The inclusion of this information would be useful to share with other instructors who

may want to create their own toolkit.

          The evaluation tab of this WebQuest, includes a reflection of the resources that were selected for

my toolkit, that I believed were interesting and engaging.   I have also explained why I feel that this toolkit

would be an integral educational tool that will allow students to become more understanding of personal

rights, copyright, intellectual property and fair use.  A summary is given in the conclusion tab, all my

references, in APA 6 format are listed in the credits tab, and tips, ideas, and helpful hints valuable enough

to share with other instructors are detailed in the teacher page.
