Re: [tips] While we bemoan education
I had seen the GTech speech earlier and sent it to a couple of my colleagues with the hope that one of our students could be inspired to give a similar speech during one of our open houses. I admit to have been somewhat disappointed to learn (thanks, Chris!) that the speech had been, in part, inspired by the one given by the speech coach. But, I fully agree with Paul's position. I suppose that, toward the beginning or the end of his address, the GTech student could have given a shout-out to the speech coach (e.g., I thank so and so whose speech in such and such a date inspired this address or something to that effect). With some creativity, such acknowledgment can be done in a way that does not in any way detract from the impact of the presentation.

Re: [tips] While we bemoan education
We could extend this discussion to teaching activities, structure of courses/course syllabi, rubrics, etc. Few of us invent any really new activities; we usually borrow and adopt to local needs. Do we need to footnote a pair-share activity every time we use it? What about student poster sessions as final activities in lab classes? What about intro psychology textbooks that use the same chapter organization and often organize topics within chapters in near-identical ways? When I read research methods texts, the chapter on quasi-experimental designs nearly always reads like an extended paraphrase of Campbell and Stanley. The person who develops entirely new activities and presentation styles is novel and creative. The early adopters may be perceived as equally novel and creative, although all they did was recognize a great idea and adapt it. Eventually these become common practice. When every student speaker at every convocation starts to coordinate the speech with a sound track, people will say the performance is stale and derivative. Think of all those Elvis impersonators! :-) Early on, we feel that something should be cited. After multiple adoptions and modifications, it becomes common knowledge. This can be a tricky judgment. I think many students struggle with the idea of when an idea requires a citation and when it is common knowledge. At some point, a transition occurs. How do we define when that line has been crossed and explain it to our students? _ Claudia J.

I agree that the arts are a trickier business and I am content to leave those issues regarding plagiarism to copyright lawyers. ;-) The problem with the arts is that large amounts of money can be involved and the claims for priority become more of a money grab. Consider Robin Thicke, Pharrell Williams, and Clifford Harris Jr,'s Song of the Summer (tm, Stephen Colbert ;-) Blurred Lines. Both Marvin Gaye's family and Bridgeport Music which owns the rights to the Funkadelic's song Sexy Ways are going to sue Thicke because he and his co-writers copied their compositions. See: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/robin-thicke-sues-protect-blurred-607492 NOTE: see Funkadelic front man George Clinton's comments at the end. and http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/music-arts/marvin-gaye-son-implies-robin-thicke-ace-lawsuit-article-1.1433640 I don't know who is right in this situation but if one is caught up in this kind of sh*tstorm, I'd follow Warren Zevon's advice: Bring lawyers, guns, and money. And this doesn't even involve sampling which is a bigger headache; see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampling_%28music%29 -Mike Palij New York University m...@nyu.edu - Original Message - On Friday, August 23, 2013 12:10:56 PM, Mike Palij scribbled in crayon: On Fri, 23 Aug 2013 06:35:00 -0700, Christopher Green wrote: However, it turns out to have been stolen.

In order to establish a common framework for discussion, let use the following definition from the Indiana University, Bloomington's School of Education page on plagiarism: |3. Plagiarism. | |Plagiarism is defined as presenting someone else's work, including |the work of other students, as one's own. Any ideas or materials |taken from another source for either written or oral use must be fully |acknowledged, unless the information is common knowledge. What |is considered common knowledge may differ from course to course. | |a. A student must not adopt or reproduce ideas, opinions, theories, |formulas, graphics, or pictures of another person without acknowledgment. | |b. A student must give credit to the originality of others and acknowledge |an indebtedness whenever: | |1. Directly quoting another person's actual words, whether oral or |written; | |2. Using another person's ideas, opinions, or theories; | |3. Paraphrasing the words, ideas, opinions, or theories of others, |whether oral or written; | |4. Borrowing facts, statistics, or illustrative material; or | |5. Offering materials assembled or collected by others in the form of |projects or collections without acknowledgment. Now, both presentation involved topics about science fiction, both used Strauss' Thus Sprach Zarathrustra, and both were oriented toward a young audience that was familiar with the references being made in the presentation but where did the second presentation: (a) Directly quote the first presentation? (b) Use the ideas, opinions, or theories of the first presentation? (c) Paraphrase the words, ideas, opinion, or theories of the first presentation? (d) Borrow facts, statistics, or illustrative material (NOTE: both presentations involve science fiction but the second presentation does not use the same examples used in the first presentation)? (e) Offer materials assembled or collected in the first presentation? Stylistically, they are similar but not identical. So, in what sense does the second presentation plagiarize the first presentation? After that, one could try to show how Tarantino's Kill Bill movies plagiarize a lot of movies, ranging from Francois Truffaut's The Bride Wore Black to the Stephen Segall Hard to Kill. For a more or less complete list of movies referenced in KB see: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0266697/movieconnections Is Kill Bill 1 2 plagiarism? Quentin Tarantino is listed as the writer and director and no one else. Or is this simply an homage? -Mike Palij New York University m...@nyu.edu On 2013-08-23, at 8:46 AM, Paul C Bernhardt pcbernha...@frostburg.edu wrote: Here is something that I think is a ton of fun, some of you have probably seen it.

Oh the stories we could tell! I lived in an attic apartment (real cozy actually), drove a 1967 Volvo only when I left town (it was past its prime even then; the 67s were not the upscale Volvos of today), lived without any phone for a year, accepted care packages, and did babysitting for the faculty with kids . I didn't know any better ... didn't everyone live this way? And walked to school in 4 feet snow yeah yeah yeah ha haIt's difficult to be objective about all this though and I don't want to imply that we were freer of peer-induced "necessities".

RE: [tips] Student Loans
John and others- On the other hand, I didn't really need the cool French 10 speed nor the Italian hiking boots etc etc. Sounds very familiar! Or add to that the North Face tent (when they were a small hand constructing company no one had heard of the) or the MSR stove . . . A very few splurges, yes. My own experience has been that students who take loans at our school are similar to the way John and I were as undergrads. I also lived in an apartment carved out of an older house near campus during two years when I had loans (it was cheaper than the dorms, not more expensive). There was no pool, I rode the bicycle or walked most places (mine was British) because I couldn't afford the 75-cent/gallon gas prices. I ate at home most of the time (cheaper) and dined out once a week on all you can eat night at a local pasta place (because I was running 40 miles a week). My fabulous wardrobe consisted of jeans and t-shirts mostly. I also worked two part time jobs much of the time and paid most of my own way the last two years at a private liberal arts college because both my parents had forced medical retirement. The parents helped all they could afford. Yes, today's students do need a cell phone- but they don't pay for internet and many work part time to pay for a few extras. (I have very few students who drive a new car or who don't live a rather Spartan lifestyle). I will admit that I'm somewhat nonplussed by some of their attitudes toward buying their textbooks. :) Tim ___ Timothy O.
