The Digital Learning Challenge
Recently the Berkman Center released “The Digital Learning Challenge: Obstacles to Educational Uses of Copyrighted Material in the Digital Age,” a year-long study on the relationship between copyright law and education. Overseen by Prof. William Fisher and conducted by Berkman fellow William McGeveran, the paper studies whether innovative uses of digital technology were hampered by copyright restrictions.
In this MediaBerkman special, Colin Rhinesmith and Amanda Michel looked closely into the paper’s case studies by interviewing Prof. William Fisher, Berkman fellow Bill McGeveran, Berkman student fellow Jackie Harlow, Washington College of Law Professor Peter Jaszi, WGBH Deputy General Counsel Jay Fialkov, New World Records Vice President and Trustee Lisa Kahlden, and George Mason Professor/Associate Director or the Center for History and New Media Mills Kelly.
