Summary 3. Intellectual Property

Intellectual Property (IP) is a category of property that includes intangible creations of the human intellect. Intellectual property encompasses two types of rights: industrial property rights (trademarks, patents, designations of origin, industrial designs and models) and copyright.

The term intellectual  property may be new to you. There are many aspects to this topic that we explored in this module.  As you can tell from the range of resources shared in the discussions, there is a lot to know. We only just covered some basics.

Discussions and question assignments - Remember. This is a transferable credit course. College level writing is required. If your response lacks specifics or adequate explanation, points may be deducted.

Late work - By now, everyone has had an opportunity to become familiar with the course structure and has established a routine for completing the coursework. Reminder: All module Assignment activities are due on the module due date. Late work submission deductions may apply. If you know you can't make the deadline ahead of time and you have a good explanation, we can talk about a plan and an extension.

Module 4. Links: From here to there

Linking - the ability to embed hyperlinks in pages, is one of the most significant features of the web. The idea that a viewer could click on a word or a picture and immediately be taken to another page that provided additional relevant information was revolutionary.
