Publication Requirements in the
Light of the Digital Age
It should be noted that the development of high-quality digital learning products
and materials involves a complex combination of expertise in the subject, knowledge of
educational design and technical skills: photography, audio, video, computer
programming, etc (Wilde, 2004). With the engagements of all of this, it is essential to be
mindful of the following:
A.Copyright Laws
B.Anti-Bullying Act of 2013
C.Republic Act 110175
A. Copyright Laws
Copyright Law protects works of authorship.
According to FindLaw (2020), the Copyright Act
states that works of authorship include the
following types of works:
Literary works. Novels, nonfiction prose, poetry,
newspaper articles and newspapers, magazine articles
and magazines, computer software, software
documentation and manuals, training manuals,
manuals, catalogs, brochures, ads (text), and
compilations such as business directories.
Musical works. Songs, advertising jingles, and
instrumentals.

works of fine art.

and videos, television shows, television ads, and
interactive multimedia works.

 FindLaw (2020) further states that Copyright Law is important for multimedia
developers and publishers for two reasons:

a. Original multimedia works are protected by

copyright. The Copyright Act's exclusive rights
provision gives developers and publishers the
right to control unauthorized exploitation of their
works.
b.Multimedia works are created by combining
"content" music, text, graphics, illustrations,
photographs, software- that is protected under
copyright law. Developers and publishers must
avoid infringing copyrights owned by others.
B. Anti-Bullying Act of 2013
Republic Act No. 10627 otherwise
known as the Anti-Bullying Act of 2013 of the
Philippines directs all elementary and
secondary schools to adopt policies to
address the existence of bullying in their
respective institutions.
Bullying refers to any severe or repeated use by one or more students
of a written, verbal or electronic expression, or a physical act or
gesture, or any combination thereof, directed at another student that
has the effect of actually causing or placing the latter in reasonable
fear of physical or emotional harm or damage to his property; creating
a hostile environment at school for the other student; infringing on the
rights of the other student at school; or materially and substantially
disrupting the education process or the orderly operation of a school.
 One of the most common problems
encountered today by internet users is
bullying online which we call cyberbullying.
C. Republic Act 110175
This is known as Cybercrime Prevention Act
of 2012 declaring a policy that states that the
State recognizes the vital role of information and
communications industries such as content
production, telecommunications, broadcasting
electronic commerce, and data processing, in the
nation's overall social and economic
development.
