…The easier and bestĀ thing to do is use the following statement:
Students who participate in this class with their camera on or use a profile image are agreeing to have their video or image recorded solely for the purpose of creating a record for students enrolled in the class to refer to, including those enrolled students who are unable to attend live.Ā If you are unwilling to consent to have your profile or video image recorded, be sure to keep your camera off and do not use a profile image. Likewise, students who un-mute during class and participate orally are agreeing to have their voices recorded.Ā If you are not willing to consent to have your voice recorded during class, you will need to keep your mute button activated and communicate exclusively using the “chat” feature, which allows students to type questions and comments live.
Faculty can:
- send the statement to students viaĀ email
- post theĀ statementĀ to BlackBoard
- include the statementĀ in their syllabus
- include theĀ statementĀ along with their Zoom invitation
- post orĀ read the statement aloudĀ it before starting the recording
- all of this
Please do not use the form.
