Litigation is being transformed by new visual communication technologies, including videoconferencing, PowerPoint, and computer animations. Yet the effects of these visual technologies on legal decision making are largely unknown. In order to understand better the most pressing issues surrounding technology in the courtroom, psychologists, lawyers, and representatives from technology companies and funding agencies attended a Research Conference on Courtroom Technology organized by the Federal Judicial Center. The goals of the conference were to identify issues raised by courtroom uses of new technologies that could be illuminated by empirical research and to suggest designs and methods for conducting that research. This paper emerged from that conference. The authors provide an overview of considerations that should guide research in this area, including a framework that takes into account features of the technology, the audience, and the legal strategy of the user of the technology. They outline a paradigm for conducting such research, illustrate it with several possible empirical studies of varying levels of experimental and conceptual complexity, and identify directions for subsequent research.

Additionally, an overview of legislation that has had an impact on assistive technology at the postsecondary level is presented. Issues involving assistive technology programs at the postsecondary level are discussed. Postsecondary assistive technology program components, device selection, and training guidelines also are outlined.

And, finally, it describes OSEP's Technology, Educational Media, and Materials strategic program agenda that will drive future planning and priorities.

This article attempts to place in proper perspective the legal and ethical aspects of proprietary rights as they apply to federally funded media programs. Brief reference is made to the recently enacted revision of the Copyright Law, Title 17 of the U.S. Code. Distinction is made between the common law and statutary copyright protection afforded to the creator of an original work. The 'Fair Use' doctrine and the 'Rights in Data' clauses of the general provisions of the Federal Procurement Regulations are discussed in detail; so is the use of Talent Consent and Waivers and Easements of Copyright.
