Are my class materials protected by copyright?
Answer
Generally, instructors at StFX own the copyright in the teaching materials they create, e.g., lecture notes, PowerPoint presentations, course syllabi, and lectures.
StFX instructors may wish to consider adding the following statement to their printed syllabi and Moodle course pages for their students:
These course materials are designed for use in Course XXX at StFX University and are the property of the instructor, unless otherwise stated by the instructor. Copying this material for distribution, online posting, or selling of this material to third parties without permission is subject to Canadian Copyright Law and is strictly prohibited.
