Intellectual Property and Law
The Facts of Life as a Designer!
In this class we will be covering a great deal of important information that will be beyond beneficial. Covering things like common business practices including finance, accounting, insurance, taxes, management, marketing, and negotiation. I'm pretty excited about learning about copyright, and basic business and contract law.
I completed my first discussion where we are talking about " What are the pros and cons of eliminating intellectual property laws?" I'm enjoying what many of my classmates are posting about the pros and cons!
