Each institution must have an acceptable use policy for access to all systems including the Internet/World Wide Web. This policy must include provisions for: protecting the confidentiality of students protecting intellectual property rights, licensing agreements and legal/ethical standards for sharing of resources with other educational entities upholding the integrity of systems, programs and information resources

The duties and responsibilities to carry out this policy are placed upon institutions, IT officials, and instructors (District Technology Plans: Essential Components and E-Rate Plan Criteria, n.d.).

Another aspect that needs to be changed is that of how the instructors will be held liable for the distribution of materials to only those enrolled in the class.
