Trademark Information (® and™)

KUCRL has taken steps to legally protect the Strategic Instruction Model. It is important for all of us to use the correct symbol when we use the term or our logo in our materials. "Strategic Instruction Model" and "SIM" are trademarks (™) of the University of Kansas Center for Research on Learning. The first time you use either term in a ppt, article, document, etc., include the ™ symbol as shown:

Strategic Instruction Model™

SIM™

It is especially important to use this symbol in advertisements and materials promoting workshops and the first time the term is used in articles or other text. It is not necessary to use the symbol every time the words are used in printed materials, but certainly use the symbol on first reference in text and on prominent uses of the term (such as headings). If you question whether use of the symbol is necessary, use it. Note that in addition to using the trademark symbol, the first letter of each word should be capitalized. The SIM logo is a registered trademark (®) trademark of the University of Kansas Center for Research on Learning. The symbol is incorporated into the design of the logo. How do I insert ® or ™ into my documents?

On Mac computers, use the key combination Option-2 to insert ™.
On PCs, use the key combination Alt + 0174 or Ctrl+Alt+R to insert ®.
On PCs, use the key combination Alt + 0153 (hold down the Alt key while you type the numbers) to insert ™.
For web use, you can enter the HTML entity ® to insert ® or the HTML entity ™ to insert ™.

EPS is the right choice for use with advanced graphics software (Adobe Illustrator, for example) or desktop publishing programs (such as Adobe InDesign).
Vector-based EPS graphics are the best option for high-quality printing and publishing.
TIFF is the most universal and most widely supported format across all platforms. The TIFF files provided are not compressed and have white backgrounds. They are appropriate for PowerPoint or Microsoft Word use.
JPEGs are compressed images well suited for use on the web because of their small file size. However, they lack the resolution to be used for high-quality printing.

Official SIM Signature includes 1 color, 2 color, CMYK, and reversed versions in most formats.

SIM Mark 1 Includes 1 color, 2 color, CMYK, and reversed versions in most formats.

SIM Mark 2 Includes 1 color, 2 color, CMYK, and reversed versions in most formats
