Now, if a handout or exam is published online, that's copyright infringement. I, as a professor, have ownership rights to those handouts and exams." It is not only the content of online notes that profes sors are worried about but the quality as well. For example, Carmen Lord, assistant professor of art history, teaches Art History 100 (Introduction to Art) and moved an exam originally scheduled for Oct. 19 to Oct 26. The note taker for Notesplus.com (www.notes plus.com) gave the subject for the Oct. 14 class as the review for the exam and the subject for the Oct. 19 class as the exam date. On each of these days, Lord gave a lecture and those notes were not on the Web site. Such discrepancies are why Lord and her colleagues are opposed to online notes. "I don't think there is a single person in my depart ment that is in favor of online notes," Lord said. To bypass such inconsistencies, Andrew Peck, lectur er in psychology, provides his own lecture notes online through Yournotes.com (www yournotes.corn). "I looked at some of the online note providers, and some of them were fine and some of them were just awful," Peck said. "Online notes are a tool. If the stu dent's viewpoint is inaccurate, it hurts other students." Merri Big Ten Universities University Illinois Indiana lowa Michigan Michigan St Minnesota . Northwestern Ohio State ..
