Creating an RSS Feed File
Stephen's Web ~ by Stephen Downes ~: "How to Create an RSS Feed With Notepad, a Web Server, and a Beer

An RSS (Rich Site Summary) feed is an XML file used to describe the contents of your website. As your website content changes, your RSS feed changes. Other computer systems, known as 'aggregators' or 'harvesters', read your RSS feed everyt once in a while. If you have provided new information, the aggregator takes that information and sends it to readers around the world. Thus information about your site's contents is 'syndicated', that is, rebroadcast to a much larger audience."

Encouraging Academic Integrity
Academic integrity is essential to learning. Northwest Vista College is committed to creating and fostering an environment that encourages and rewards academic integrity at all levels.

To achieve our goal, we are committed to the Ten Principles of Academic Integrity, as defined by Donald L. McCabe and Gary Pavela:
1. Affirm the importance of academic integrity.
2. Foster a love of learning.
3. Treat students as ends in themselves.
4. Promote an environment of trust in the classroom.
5. Encourage student responsibility for academic integrity.
6. Clarify expectations for students.
7. Develop fair and relevant forms of assessment.
8. Reduce opportunities to engage in academic dishonesty.
9. Challenge academic dishonesty when it occurs.
10. Help define and support campus-wide academic integrity standards."

Technology-Enabled Teaching/eLearning Dialogue
Technology-Enabled Teaching/eLearning Dialogue: "Distributed Learning Meets Intellectual Property Policy: Who Owns What?
By Dr. Veronica Diaz,
Learning Technologies Manager,
Adjunct Professor
University of Arizona
The rise of eLearning and technology in higher education—including distance education, digital repositories, and electronic courseware products—has changed the way faculty and institutions regard ownership and control of these materials. A new market exists for products that previously had little or no commercial value, especially as institutions become more adept and profitable at delivering and marketing distributed learning courses and programs. In turn, this has created a need for higher institutions to revise their existing intellectual property (IP) policies.
The authority and responsibilities of faculty members in this digital era regarding how courses are developed, taught, and maintained are in flux, and many existing institutional policies fail to address important questions raised in this changing environment. Distributed learning is vastly different from what has traditionally been covered with copyright (books, articles) and brings with it several important areas that must be addressed to ensure its long-term viability and proliferation."
