Intellect Property Rights
- To protect the intellectual property of our compatriots, our national law has special provisions allowing creative talents to hold trademarks, patents, and copyrights, which protect their “intellectual property rights.”
- According to the text of Taiwan’s copyright law, copyright refers to the personal rights and economic rights of the author that are generated from his or her completed writings; it is a type of intellectual property right.
- The contents of a lecture constitute a literary writing, so the students need the speaker’s consent before recording it.

Procurement of properties and services
1. Teachers using the books, articles, e-books, slides, charts, photos, video clips, animations, or software of others as class materials involves “reproducing” materials as stipulated in the Copyright Act. In accordance with Article 46 of the Copyright Act, teachers may reproduce the works of others that have already been publicly released within the “scope necessary.” How do you define the “scope necessary”? Generally, it should be relevant to a teacher’s class contents. In addition, based on the type and purpose of the works and the quality and quantity of the reproduction, the economic rights of the copyright holder must not be infringed, otherwise it shall not be considered “within the scope necessary.”
2. The videos teachers play in the classroom with classroom devices or audio-visual equipment of NTU must be either the “publicly released version” or the “educational version” specifically for school use or the teacher must receive authorization from the copyright holder to avoid infringing its copyrights.
3. The contents of the teaching resources DVD or the teaching resources website provided by publishers are usually for teachers to use as class materials only. Teachers who upload these digital files to the campus network platforms or cloud hard drives for students to browse, download, or record in open courses are considered as publicly transmitting these files. Teachers must be aware of their actions. Since the Internet has no boundaries, a small action may have a large impact on the rights of copyright holders. However, if the copyright holder has already given authorization for public transmission, you do not need to receive authorization from the copyright holder again, for example, teachers using NTU’s network to play “publicly released version” or “educational version” videos.
4. Since the Taiwanese society has not reached a consensus regarding the definition of the “scope necessary” stipulated in Article 46 of the Copyright Act, the boundaries set in the United States and Hong Kong are international standards we can take as reference. Please visit the Intellectual Property Office website under Appendix 1 of the “Teacher’s Class Materials & Copyrights” (https://topic.tipo.gov.tw/copyright-tw/cp-415-855924-5dd9b-301.html) for the summary of the standards for photocopying textbooks in the United States and Hong Kong. For information regarding the production and usage of digital teaching materials, please refer to the Fair Use Guidelines for Educational Multimedia in Appendix 2.
5. This document has referenced the “Teacher’s Class Materials & Copyrights” and the “Description of Copyrights for All Levels of Legally Established Schools and the Videos Displayed in Classrooms” of the Intellectual Property Office, Ministry of Economic Affairs.
