Apologies for cross-postings
Dear list members
Bridgeman Education is currently investigating how images from Wikipedia and
search engines such as Google are retrieved and used for educational use.
At a time when some institutions are calling on staff to remove images taken
off Google from their internal networks, there is increasing awareness of
copyright issues and very opposing views on acceptable use - particularly at
different levels within the institution.
Our Project team wish to substantiate existing data gained through focus
groups and would like to hear from the community at all levels - deans,
school and faculty heads, tutors, curriculum leaders, librarians and of
course the students themselves.
Respondents will only be required to give a short telephone interview or
questionnaire sharing their views on use of images from search engines,
quality of metadata and file size, level of use and attitudes to copyright,
plagiarism, fair use, fair dealing and how they see images used in education
in the future.
Bridgeman Education is carrying out this survey as part of a UK government
funded project to research the future of e-learning, technology in education
and the issues associated with providing useful access to learning
materials. For more information on the project see: SILVER
(www.silvereducation.org <http://www.silvereducation.org/> )
Please confirm your interest via the email address below and we will contact
you with further details.
Responses will be treated in confidence and no names will be published. A
summary of the research will be fed back to and shared with those who have
been kind enough to give their time. Participants from any institution or
country are welcome.
