Background
5.7+4=9.7 millions (and another 4 millions)

"digitised materials offered freely and openly for educators, students and self-learners to use and reuse for teaching, learning and research
Hyln, Jan (2007). Giving Knowledge for Free: The Emergence of Open Educational Resources. Paris, France: OECD Publishing. p. 30

Sharing openly is good


Public money Transparency and accountability Equality of access Increased utility Increased applications & better retention

Students do use OER and it does save time

One of the benefits of being explicitly open is that it removes the need for people to ask before re-using stuff. Without it, everything boils down to am I allowed to do this? type question and many forms of re-use will stop at that hurdle because the costs of getting the answer are too great

IPR & COPYRIGHT ISSUES

Intellectual property rights (IPR)


There are four main types of IP rights
Patents protect what makes things work (e.g. engine parts, chemical formulas) Trade marks are signs (like words and logos) that distinguish goods and services in the marketplace Designs protect the appearance of a product/logo, from the shape of an aeroplane to a fashion item Copyright is an automatic right which applies when the work is expressed (fixed, written or recorded)
Copyright, Design and Patents Act, 1988 Copyright arises automatically when an original idea (author uses some judgment or skill) is expressed/created
www.ipo.gov.uk

7/14/2011

Who owns copyright?


The owner of the copyright is the person (or persons, if jointly owned) who created/expressed it, i.e. the author (writer, composer, artist, producer, publisher, etc.)
Original literary works such as novels or poems Original dramatic works such as dance Original musical works, i.e. the musical notes Original artistic works such as graphic works (paintings, drawings etc.), photographs and sculptures, including sound recordings, films and broadcasts Typographical arrangements of published editions

An exception is an employee who creates a work in the course of their employment (employer owns)
www.cla.co.uk

What rights does a copyright owner have?


A copyright owner has economic and moral rights Economic rights cover copyright owner acts, including rights to copy the work, distribute (e.g. making it available on-line), rent, lend, perform, show, or adapt it Owners can waive, assign, licence or sell the ownership of their economic rights Moral rights can be waived (but not licensed or assigned) and include the right to
Be identified as the author Deny a work (that an author did not create) Object to derogatory treatment of the work
www.cla.co.uk

Copyright infringement
It is an infringement of copyright (in relation to a substantial part of a work) without the permission or authorisation of the copyright owner, to
Copy it and/or issue copies of it to the public Rent or lend it to the public Perform or show it in public Communicate it to the public

Secondary infringement may occur if someone, without permission, imports, possesses or deals with an infringing copy, or provides the means for making it Material found on the internet is subject to copyright
www.cla.co.uk

Exceptions
You may copy copyright works if
Copyright has expired (e.g. for literary, dramatic, musical or artistic works = 70 years from when the last author dies) Your use of the work (which must be acknowledged) is fair dealing as defined under the 1988 Copyright Designs and Patents Act (UK) Your use of the work is covered under a licensing scheme that you and the copyright holder have subscribed to The copyright owner has given you permission
www.copyrightservice.co.uk

Obtaining clearance to use copyright material


For permission to copy, contact the copyright owner in writing and specify

The material you wish use (title, author name etc.) The exact content to be duplicated (i.e. page numbers) The number of copies you wish to make How the copies will be used (i.e. for an event, course work) Who the copies will be distributed to (i.e. students)

For most published works this will be the publisher Permission is needed for each and every purpose Fees may be charged to copy the item, or for administering the request to copy the item
www.cla.co.uk

Fair dealing
Your use of the work (which must be acknowledged) is fair dealing as defined under the 1988 Copyright Designs and Patents Act (UK)
Research and private study Instruction or examination Criticism or review News reporting Incidental inclusion Accessibility for someone with, e.g. a visual impairment

There is no simple formula or % that can be applied instead use licenced materials, or ask for permission
www.copyrightservice.co.uk

7/14/2011

Using licenced works


A licence (a set of rules) describes how copyright items may be used by others Licensing schemes (such as Creative Commons) that both authors (owners) and users can access for free
If both sides observe the rules then both parties are instantly protected Owners licence others to use their content Users obey the terms of the licence Creative Commons provides different licences that can be combined together Policies can be developed to guide owners what licences to use

RECORDINGS OF PEOPLE (ESPECIALLY PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES, HEALTHCARE WORKERS, ACTORS, STUDENTS, ETC.) IN LEARNING MATERIALS

Consent as distinct from IPR


Defined by the 8 principles in the Data Protection Act 1998 (and Human Rights Act 1998) Recognises the need for more sophisticated management of consent for recordings of people (stills, videos, audios, etc.)
Teachers (academics, clinicians, practice/work based learning tutors, etc.) Students and product placement (branded items) Role players/actors/performers/hired help (including recording crew) Patients/patient families/care workers/support staff/members of public in healthcare settings (sensitive personal data) GMC guidelines for consent/patient recordings

Considerations
People Patients (children and vulnerable adults) Dead people/patients (children and vulnerable adults) Existing recordings (already exist) New recordings (that you are planning to make)

Clinical setting

Academic setting

Recordings Doctor collects incorporated into consent educational event Recordings taken We all want to do the right thing! Uploaded to VLE Consent for No evidence of recordings stored with consent patient record No access to patient Clear guidance record available Location of risk unclear

Consent for use in teaching


Patient or non-patient participation in the development of teaching materials is not in their best interests If it can be copied digitally then you have to assume that it is open There is no such thing as anonymising patient or other information

The Data Protection Act (1998)


Schedule 1 states: "1 Personal data shall be processed fairly and lawfully and, in particular, shall not be processed unless (a) at least one of the conditions in Schedule 2 is met, and (b) in the case of sensitive personal data, at least one of the conditions in Schedule 3 is also met."

16

7/14/2011

The Data Protection Act (1998)


Schedule 2 states (paraphrased in [], emphasis added)
"Conditions relevant for purposes of the first principle: processing of any personal data 1 The data subject has given his consent to the processing. 2 The processing is necessary - [for any of the above (schedule 2) plus the purpose of performing any right or obligation which is conferred or imposed by law on the data controller in connection with employment; in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject including where consent has been unreasonably with held, or another person in a case where consent cannot be be given or the data controller cannot reasonably be expected to obtain the consent; processing is carried out by a body or association which is not established or conducted for profit and exists for political, philosophical, religious or trade-union purposes, safeguards the rights and freedoms of data subjects and is not disclosed to third parties without consent.]

The Data Protection Act (1998)


Schedule 3 states (paraphrased in [], emphasis added)
"Conditions relevant for purposes of the first principle: processing of any sensitive personal data 1 The data subject has given his explicit consent to the processing. 2 The processing is necessary - [for the purpose of entering a into contract; compliance with some legal obligation; to protect the vital interests of the data subject; for the administration of justice; for the exercise of any function of: houses of parliament, conferred on any person or under any enactment, Crown, a Minister of the Crown or government department, exercised in the public interest of any person; for the purposes of legitimate interests by the data controller except where prejudice the legitimate interests of the data subject; the Secretary of State has specified particular circumstances.]

GMC principles
When making or using recordings you must respect patients privacy and dignity, and their right to make or participate in decisions that affect them. This means that you must: give patients the information they want, or need, about the purpose of the recording make recordings only where you have appropriate consent or other valid authority for doing so ensure that patients are under no pressure to give their consent for the recording to be made where practicable, stop the recording if the patient asks you to, or if it is having an adverse effect on the consultation or treatment anonymise or code recordings before using or disclosing them for a secondary purpose, if this is practicable and will serve the purpose disclose or use recordings from which patients may be identifiable only with consent or other valid authority for doing so make appropriate secure arrangements for storing recordings be familiar with, and follow, the law and local guidance and procedures that apply where you work.

GMC principles
And you must not:
make, or participate in making, recordings against a patient s wishes, or where a recording may cause the patient harm disclose or use recordings for purposes outside the scope of the original consent without obtaining further consent (except in the circumstances set out in paragraphs 10 and 1517).

18

7/14/2011

GMC states
Consent to make the recordings listed below will be implicit in the consent given to the investigation or treatment, and does not need to be obtained separately.
Images of internal organs or structures Images of pathology slides Laparoscopic and endoscopic images Recordings of organ functions Ultrasound images X-rays

NHS states
Patients are any person or people currently in receipt of healthcare treatment, or who has/have been in receipt of healthcare treatment. Children and vulnerable adults may or may not be in healthcare treatment but should always be considered under the 'sensitive' part of the Data Protection Act 1998. The NHS guidelines recommend at least three or possibly four (Scotland) levels of consent, ranging from none to 'publication' NHS level III consent. "Many NHS Trusts have patient consent forms which specifically designate 'level III consent' (public access including the internet). If this applies, then Open Access in the sense of sharing materials publicly clearly would fall within this permission.
Level I consent is for use within the patient record only. Level II consent is for teaching and learning but with restricted access only. Level III consent is usually for open access and in the public domain."

Issues
Where to store copies of consent? Withdrawing consent? How to find properly consented materials? What is the advice in relation to lecture capture? How do you stop someone else ripping you off

Policies, disclaimers and risk


In order to safeguard yourself against litigation for copyright or data protection (consent) violation
Have a policy/disclaimer Clearly publish your policy and keep it up to date Train your staff in the use of the policy Follow your policy (do what you say you will do)

You may also want a disclaimer this resource has been provided use it at your own risk. If you have any concerns about any material appearing in this resource please contact Actively manage your risks Take out liability insurance

Good practice compliance table (managing risk)


Explanation Risk of litigation from infringement of IPR/copyright or patient consent rights

Ownership of resources is likely to be clear. Good practice is followed in relation to patients. Take down and other complaint policies are in place and being followed.

Proposing a Consent Commons


A human subject version of Creative Commons Accepts a basic human right to refuse their image/voice appearing and, where they have previously consented, their right to withdraw their consent Would work like Creative Commons in that you hallmark material with the consent status and when consent needs to be reviewed (if ever) Has levels of release (e.g. Closed; medic restrict; review [date]; fully open) Terms of the consent needs to be stored with/near the resource

Consent Commons ameliorates uncertainty about the status of educational resources depicting people, and protects institutions from legal risk by developing robust and sophisticated policies and promoting best practice in managing information.

Principles
1. Acknowledge that patients interests and rights are paramount. 2. Respect the rights to privacy and dignity of other people who are included in recordings, such as family members and health care workers. 3. Respect the rights of those who own the recordings and the intellectual property of those recordings, and check and comply with the licences for use. 4. Take professional responsibility for your making and use of recordings and alert colleagues to their legal and ethical responsibilities where appropriate.

Digital professionalism
To be a digital professional every member of staff who contributes to curriculum delivery, in both NHS and academic settings should be able to identify, model and understand professional behaviour in the digital environment.

Digital literacy
digital literacy defines those capabilities which fit an individual for living, learning and working in a digital society
Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC), 2011

most learners are still strongly led by tutors and course practices: tutor skills and confidence with technology are therefore critical to learners' development

Digital professionalism: embodiment? Academic practice: enactment? Information literacy: competence? Digital literacy: awareness?

Rachel Ellaway (2010)

TOWARDS A DIGITAL PROFESSIONALISM: 7 PRINCIPLES

Principle #1: establish and sustain an on online professional presence that befits your responsibilities while representing your interests. Be selective in which channels and places you establish a profile.

Principle #2: use privacy controls to manage more personal parts of your online profile and do not make public anything that you would not be comfortable defending as professionally appropriate in a court of law

27

7/14/2011

Principle #3: think carefully and critically about how what you say or do will be perceived by others and act with appropriate restraint

Principle #4: think carefully & critically about how what you say or do reflects on others (individuals & organisations) and act with appropriate restraint

Principle #5: think carefully and critically about how what you say or do will be perceived in years to come; consider every action online as permanent

7/14/2011

Principle #6: be aware of the potential for attack or impersonation, know how to protect your online reputation and what steps to take when it is under Ellaway, 2010 threat

Principle #7: an online community is still a community and you are still a professional
