[Air-L] Online course development--what's a good contract?

[Rishi Arora]

Hi Patricia, grad students at UChicago through our union and the AAUP pressured the administration to alleviate some of these concerns this past quarter. We are working to have these codified for next year as well. This resulted in the strong statements and policies you can find here: https://teachingremotely.uchicago.edu/. In particular see the following sections:

-Recording Policy
-Recording Deletion Policy
-Statement Related to Copyright of Course Materials

Hope this helps!

Best,
Rishi

Subject: [Air-L] Online course development--what's a good contract?

Hi! We're in urgent need of understanding what good precedent is in negotiating faculty rights when universities develop online content. Who owns the content? What does the faculty member get paid to develop the content? What are the protections that the university won't just take the developed course and hire adjuncts to teach it? Any advice gratefully welcomed.
