  • Understanding how we "organize our knowledge" means to understand our theory. That’s what theory is: the summary and synthesis of what is known about a field. It is the reduction of our knowledge to the basic ideas, presented in a way that shows their underlying patterns and relationships. Understanding theory makes it possible for us to speak with a common vocabulary. Understanding it should have the effect of helping practitioners see where their piece of the action fits and interfaces with others and thus should lead to better ways of working with others. The theory also helps us understand what we don’t know and, therefore, is the only guide to research.

    "Copyright law does include exemptions for professors who wish to use audiovisual media "in the course of face-to-face teaching activities of a nonprofit educational institution, in a classroom or similar place devoted to instruction" - so long as the professor is not showing media that he or she knows has been made illegally. The university said streaming the video on a password-protected Web site, where only students who are registered members of the class can access it, satisfies these criteria. But the trade group is arguing that a password-protected space on the Web is not a classroom. "The face-to-face teaching exemption allows a video to be played in class, not streamed to the classroom from a remote location," Dohra said in an e-mail."
