Every year, more and more laws are added that enforce or change the issues of copyright, privacy, and plagiarism. This module will provide you with basic information regarding some of the legal and ethical issues surrounding computers, the internet, and research. On top of the international, federal, state, and local laws, Concordia University has developed several policies regarding these topics. This part of the class is designed to provide information that many people overlook or simply do not understand. This module also serves as an introduction to the two major style guides used by Concordia University.
