    Study Notes

    Media and Information Literacy (MIL)

    • MIL involves understanding media and information literacy concepts and applying guidelines for intellectual property, copyright, and fair use.
    • Online hate speech, product imitations, blocked content, and excessive internet use are societal issues related to new media.
    • Digital citizenship involves responsible online behavior, respecting ethical guidelines, and understanding one's rights and responsibilities as a user in an online environment.

    Intellectual Property (IP)

    • IP refers to creations of the mind, including inventions, literary works, designs, and commercial symbols.
    • IP is classified into two categories: Industrial Property (patents, trademarks, industrial designs, geographical indications) and Copyrights (literary works, films, music, artistic works, architectural designs).
    • IP rights are protected by RA 8293 (Intellectual Property Code) and RA 10175 (Cybercrime Prevention Act) in the Philippines.

    Types of Intellectual Property

    • Copyright: Legal rights creators have over their literary and artistic works, including books, music, paintings, sculptures, films, computer programs, databases, advertisements, and technical drawings. Registration isn't mandatory but recommended.
    • Patent: An exclusive right granted for an invention, allowing the owner to control its use. Technical information must be publicly available.
    • Trademark: A distinguishing sign for goods or services of an enterprise, like a signature mark, indicating registration efforts (denoted by TM) or granted registration (denoted by ®).
    • Industrial Design: Covers the aesthetics of an item, such as shape, surface features, patterns, lines, and color.

    Validity Periods

    • Copyright: Duration varies based on the work type (e.g., lifetime of the author plus 50 years for literary works, 50 years from publication for photographic and audio-visual works)
    • Sound Recordings: 50 years from the recording's creation
    • Broadcasts: 20 years from broadcast date
    • Trademarks: 10 years, renewable every 10 years
    • Patent: 20 years from the filing date

    Fair Use

    • Fair use allows using copyrighted material without a license for purposes like commentary, criticism, reporting, research, and teaching, as long as certain conditions are met (amount of material, purpose, nature of the work, and market effect).
    • Fair use typically involves giving credit to the original source and non-profit use cases.

    Plagiarism

    • Plagiarism occurs when using someone else's work and presenting it as one's own. This includes unintentional copying, paraphrasing without credit, reusing prior work, or submitting someone else's work without attribution.
    • Legitimate use of others’ ideas involves proper citation and giving credit where it is due, such as through paraphrasing or summarizing with attribution.
