Recording of Lectures Policy - draft webpage

Trinity's new Recording of Lectures Policy provides guidance for teaching staff on making lecture recordings or lecture summaries available as a learning aid or additional resource for students in the VLE (Blackboard Ultra), and provides information for students on accessing and using these recordings 

The following information is designed to support teaching staff in making lecture recordings or lecture summaries available students, and to help students to understand how to properly access and use these lecture recordings.

Information for Teaching Staff

Teaching staff who wish to record a lecture using Panopto and make it available in Blackboard Ultra should take the following steps: 

If you plan to record a lecture and make the recording and/or a lecture summary available after the lecture, notify students of this in advance (if possible) in the module or programme handbook, and in the module descriptor in Blackboard Ultra. 

Students can also be notified in Blackboard Ultra if a planned recording will not be able to go ahead (e.g. for technical or logistical reasons).

Before your lecture, review your lecture slides to ensure that the material included does not pose any issues regarding copyright, confidentiality, intellectual property rights or the inclusion of sensitive material.

Include the Student Advisory Notice as the opening slide in your slide deck advising students that the lecture is being recorded. 

Once your lecture slides are ready, consult the IT Services Panopto How to Guide on Recording Lectures and managing/editing recordings.

Instructions for recording a video in Panopto can be found here. 

During the lecture, you may pause or cease recording at any time if concerns arise regarding data protection, confidentiality, intellectual property rights or the discussion of sensitive material.

When the recording is complete, review and/or edit it to make sure that issues of data protection, confidentiality, intellectual property rights or the discussion of sensitive material have been addressed. 

Instructions for inserting Panopto lecture recordings into your Blackboard Ultra module area can be found here.

When you are happy with your lecture recording (or lecture summary), upload it to the Blackboard Ultra module content area - see the IT Services Staff Video Guide.

Using the instructions provided, decide when your want the lecture recording (or lecture summary) to be available to students for, and for how long.

Notify students that the lecture recording (or lecture summary) is available.
