Intellectual Property and Copyright Considerations for Authentic Science Film Storytelling within a University Setting
Get PDFMany federally funded research grants include requirements that scientists communicate their research to the public as a means to increase scientific literacy and overall public trust in science. To address this critical societal need, scientists and a university-based science filmmaker at Rutgers University developed a collaborative science film storytelling model that has successfully translated federally funded research to the public by way of more than a dozen high-quality science films that involve university students in the storytelling process. These interdisciplinary science film projects take place at a time when university intellectual property policies are facing new challenges as teaching, research, and collaborative creative works increasingly take place on digital platforms where products and materials can be easily duplicated and shared. Thus, the need to define the terms of creative ownership and joint copyright at the onset of these science film projects, which include narrative visualization of federally funded research processes and involve many co-creators, has become pressing. This article shares suggestions for the development of memoranda of understanding between creative collaborators working together with scientists on film projects made in university settings that document and communicate federally funded science into compelling and relatable stories for the broader public

Get PDFThis study examined factors influencing college student-athletes’ athletic and academic performance built upon self-determination theory and the theory of planned behavior. With intrinsic and extrinsic motivation for collegiate athletics, student-athletes can shape attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived control, fostering psychological well-being. Psychological well-being could influence performance in athletics and academic achievements. Voluntary student-athletes contacted by coaches participated in the survey. A total of 262 responses from NCAA Division I schools were collected. A mixed-methods approach, consisting of survey responses and interview data, was implemented. Results found psychological well-being played the most salient role in explaining student-athletes\u27 athletic and academic performance self-assessments. With self-growth motivation (intrinsic), the "I can do" spirit was positively related to their psychological well-being, which triggered better athletic and academic performance. Inspirational role models (extrinsic motivation) also prompted psychological well-being. Intrinsic motivation independently affected student-athletes’ self-assessed academic performance. The findings suggest self-reliant growth, supportive inspiration, and a success mindset explain student-athletes’ disciplined fulfillment, competence, and compassion for current and future development in collegiate athletic and academic lives
