Faculty can expect an exchange of information and ideas on Blackboard course design as well as use of the Internet for instructional purposes and incorporation of both electronic presentations as well as original and scanned images and digital photography into a course site, copyright and fair use policies, and long-term maintenance of electronic instructional materials.
