Kyle's a student at San Jose State University who was threatened with a failing grade for posting the code he wrote for the course -- he wanted to make it available in the spirit of academic knowledge-sharing, and as code for potential future employers to review -- and when he refused, his prof flew into a fury and promised that in future, he would make a prohibition on posting your work (even after the course was finished) a condition of taking his course.

Article by R Tolley on ePortfolios. There is much here that I disagree with, inasmuch that Tolley seems to be making claims that are now out of date. The fact that many people at a conference came from HE doesn't mean that HE is hijacking anything. There should be a disclaimer note attached to the text too since Tolley is a reseller for an ePortfolio system. That said, the article is worth having in the collection.
