Introduction and Copyright : When posting material on their ecampus course websites, instructors should consider copyright and intellectual property laws and follow Educational Fair Use guidelines. Audio selections that fall within these guidelines may be made accessible as links from Ecampus course websites or compiled on a CD. Instructional Technology Consultants (ITCs) can help you digitize and process audio content.
