the course that i have been attending was really informative. its abt copyright where intellectual property and what nots were discussed. we talked about the morality and legal issues pertaining to that. its good to know that if teachers get sued for copyright infringements, technically, in the line of duty, we are protected.
BUT, if we quit/resigned/sacked from moe (doesnt apply if you are transfered from one school to another), all the powerpoints/worksheets/notes that we had designed/prepared for our students belongs to moe!! so all those hours slaving over them and we dont get to keep any!! *sob-sob*
i learnt a few interesting stuff abt music intellectual property. actually learning how the husband is making his income from representing other musicians as their publisher and record label a&r. so next time i see him, i will drop the cheem terminologies and speak music publishing. heh. its like talking dirty to him. he's such a nerd when it comes to this. he is totally passionate.
learnt a few more stuff. as long as you have your work published (books/music/internet) you can sue any bugger for copyright infringements. infact, whatever you are read in this blog is only for your short-term viewing pleasure (?!). if u decide to cut and paste any part of this blog, i can sue your pants off. but if you email me to seek permission to use part of the blog, i can grant u the permission. but, you can only copy abt 10% of the blog. about 1000 words, i think.
understand? haha. i am trying so hard to verbalise back what i had learnt during the course. i think i am not explaining it well enough. oh well. thats why i am not a lawyer. :P
alrights. off for another looooong wednesday.
