[Sent to a law professor mailing list to which I subscribe, and forwarded with permission. --Declan] ----- Forwarded message from Michael Geist <mgeistat_private> ----- From: Michael Geist <mgeistat_private> Subject: E-commerce law workshop course 2003 Date: Tue, 7 Jan 2003 15:19:15 -0500 As some of you may know, I have taught an e-commerce law workshop course for the past few years that has had the added feature of web-based streaming. The course has traditionally tracked the development on an e-commerce company with classes on the various legal issues faced along the way. It is now being co-taught with my colleague Jennifer Chandler and it kicks off tomorrow. Rather than covering the broad range of issues we've addressed in the past, we've shifted to a modular framework that will allow for a more intense focus on four issues -- e-contracting, privacy, jurisdiction, and financing. Each module will be three weeks. The first week will focus on substantive issues and will be typically be taught by either myself or Professor Chandler. Week two will raise the policy and global perspective with discussions and analysis on what is occurring on that front. The third week will zero in on the practical side of the issue with discussion of implementation of the law and policy. The second and third classes of each module will again be staffed by a panel of experts from outside the law school. You and your students are welcome to join in live or view archives of prior classes. Those interested in even further involvement are welcome to join the class discussion list. The course website at http://www.eclw.ca provides a course schedule and information on how to tune/join in. Classes run each Wednesday from 4 - 7 ET.
