The panel discussion will explore ways of educating students about issues of information ownership, including plagiarism, copyright, and fair use.

The panel will facilitate a discussion on the value of these pedagogical approaches. It will also help attendees assess their institutions' programming on intellectual property and ethical citation practices.
