My boyfriend brought up an intriguing question.
I've been posting in essence questions from a book I own, for us to discuss. It happens to be questions we're talking about in my ethics class.
I am only posting about them *after* all my posts in the class forums are done. That is, I'm not posting them here, gathering your answers, and then going to make my class post. So I'm doing this completely "after the fact" after my homework is all submitted, so to speak.
But even so - is there an ethics issue involved in talking about what a for-pay class teaches you? That is, does Northeastern have some sort of a sole right to talk about these questions, and by revealing the essays looked at by the class, am I improperly "re-teaching" the class I suppose?
To me, if I learn something, I feel free to then help others learn it. That's what I do all day every day. I read books on topics and then help others learn what I've learned. I think of that as normal and natural.
But maybe there is something to consider in there? Should I instead be saying "Everyone go buy book X" and "everyone go take class Y" and send people to the source?
