Course Audit of AmCult 201

Course Content

• 13 powerpoints with a lot of images

Copyright Concerns

• LOTS of un-attributed images.
• most will be PD-OLD or PD-INEL, but we still need to prove that by having provenance information for them.

    * tentative agreement with this point; most of the images look old, but I would want more sourcing, because they may just seem old.

• only a couple that will need to be removed (eg: Jim Carey and "The Mask")

Privacy Concerns

• Nothing.

Technical Concerns

• 201.First.09.ppt, first slide has a big blank square, needs to be fixed
  • happens in a couple other ppts as well
• Little Women: lots of QuickTime errors, will need to have those images re-added to the file.

    * As a triage question, should we just remove QT files in general.  They seem to cause a lot of problems.

Level of Editing Needed

• Lots of editing to add in all of the provenance/source information

Level of Publishing Needed

• Nothing out of the ordinary, I don't believe.

I think that we need to have a general discussion on super image heavy courses like this. I think that if we added more contextual materials, we could get a lot more out of these. Not to open up an existential argument though...

dScribe Method Recommendation

• Student dScribe who is in the course, taking notes on the provenance of images while the prof is giving the lecture.

Training Requirements

• Train dScribe on very very basic copyright and mostly just on what is the important provenance information

Next Steps

• Nothing right now.

Perhaps we could work with the prof on the outset on a course like this one. She seems interested in making her materials open, and if she did a bit on the creation side of the opening, we could get a lot more out of this.
