Copyright issues and ethics
The most important aspect of publishing my e-portfolio is the consideration of copyright issues. These deals with the ethical way I represent my work and represent others' work with acknowledgement. While copyright issues can be a hindrance to sorts of decoration, such as background music, for my e-portfolio, it can be beneficial too as it increases the protection of the materials produced by me as well as increases the credibility and authenticity of my website.
With copyright issues taken into account, I have changed the approach to include work. I tried to keep the originality of my work. For example, I'd design my own wallpaper and avoid using music or picture files that may be created by someone else. But wherever someone else's work is necessary to be included, I'd always reference and link to others' work to make sure it doesn't interfere with copyright concerns of the owners/producers.
I have also learnt to publish materials on the Internet in compliance with a set of publishing ethics:
1. Always reference and link others' work.
2. Always ask for permission before applying someone else's work.
3. Only publish facts and truth - do not mislead readers.
4. Eliminate any form of offensive language and statements.
5. Avoid using opinions and comments that will likely to cause readers to feel being discriminated against.
6. Do not use the website for personal profitable gains.
7. Publish the contents with correct spelling and grammar.{{file:}}
