Abstract

This goal of this project is to provide a quality graduate level distance learning course administered via WebCT that can be administered by a professor possessing a Juris Doctor. To accomplish this goal, two primary texts were selected: Ethics in Information Technology, by Reynolds, George (2003), published by Thomson Course Technology., ISBN: 0-619-06277-0 and CyberLaw: Text and Cases, 2nd edition, Ferrera, Gerald and Stephen Lichtenstein, and Margo Reder, and Robert Bird, and William Schiano (2004), published by Thomson (West Legal Studies in Business), ISBN: 0-324-16488-2. Additionally, a number of papers were written on issues pertinent to the class, several PowerPoint presentations dealing with Internet law were created, quizzes and tests were designed to measure student understanding, and a number of lectures on legal and ethical issues were recorded. Each of these components was incorporated into the WebCT class module to most effectively enhance the learning experience.
