week 5
This module is about the legal and ethical issues to keep in mind when using social media and thus ensure your research profile is raised for all the right reasons, not the wrong ones. The key is to remember that all the laws, policies and social rules that apply in real life also apply on the internet.The material on the internet is protected by copyright. You have no legal right to copy other people’s work or make it public on the internet. Use the same rules you would when writing a research paper to determine when you should ask permission to include other people’s work in your blog, web page, Facebook page or any other service you use to post content online.
