ANNOUNCEMENT
Intellectual Property in Academia Workshop Series:
Preventing and Detecting Plagiarism in the Digital Environment
October 1, 2001 to October 19, 2001
Moderated by Rebecca Moore Howard, Ph.D.
http://www.umuc.edu/distance/odell/cip/workshop_ipacademia/
Is the writer/reader relationship to text profoundly changed online? Can
assignments be redesigned to avoid plagiarism in the online and face to
face classroom? Are academic policies properly addressing campus
plagiarism issues? This dynamic workshop series will provide
participants with an in-depth understanding of the plagiarism issues
facing higher education today.
The second workshop in this asynchronous online series is an excellent
follow-up to the well received workshop covering the ownership of online
course material. Participants will receive daily response and feedback
from the workshop's moderator.
Rebecca Moore Howard (http://wrt-howard.syr.edu/) chairs and directs the
Writing Program at Syracuse University and has written extensively on
issues concerning plagiarism including, Standing in the Shadow of
Giants: Plagiarists, Authors, Collaborators (1999); co-author of The
Bedford Guide to Teaching Writing in the Disciplines (1995); coeditor of
Coming of Age: The Advanced Writing Curriculum (2000); and author of a
variety of chapters and articles about plagiarism, pedagogy, and
composition theory.

Subject: OASIS HumanMarkup TC
We would like to formally annouce the creation and Call for Participation
of the OASIS HumanMarkup Technical Committee.
<http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/humanmarkup>http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/humanmarkup
-----
Mission Statement:
The HumanMarkup TC is set forth to develop the HumanML and associated
specifications. HumanML is designed to represent human characteristics
through XML. The aim is to enhance the fidelity of human communication.
HumanML is set forth to be an XML Schema and RDF Schema specification,
containing sets of modules which frame and embed contextual human
characteristics including physical, cultural, social, kinesic,
psychological, and intentional features within conveyed information.
Other efforts within the scope of the HumanMarkup TC include messaging,
style, alternate schemas, constraint mechanisms, object models, and
repository systems, which will address the overall concerns of both
representing and amalgamating human information within data.
Target Applications: Examples of human characteristics include emotions,
physical descriptors, proxemics, kinesics, haptics, intentions, and
attitude. Applications of HumanML include agents of various types, AI
systems, virtual reality, psychotherapy, online negotiations,
facilitations, dialogue, and conflict resolution systems.
