\nWhat it’s not<\/h2>\n
An audio recorded lectures accommodation is not:<\/p>\n
\n- A barrier that prevents students from working with peers or in experiential settings.<\/li>\n
- A substitute for attending and engaging with in-person instruction and discussion.<\/li>\n
- A change to course or program requirements.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Audio recordings may not be shared with any other person, even a student in the same class.<\/p>\n
Recordings are not to be reviewed by the instructor, nor can instructors request recordings be destroyed as they are the equivalent of other student\u2019s written notes.<\/p>\n
Recordings do not compromise the privacy or confidentiality of discussions. Students can only record when all other students are permitted to take notes. More information on privacy is available below.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\nHow can I support this in my classroom?<\/h2>\n
Coordinate with accessibility services offices and accommodate student requests to place a recording device near you.<\/p>\n
Inform guest speakers that the class will be recorded.<\/p>\n
There are instances where recording may not be possible. However, in any instance that students are permitted to type or handwrite notes, a student with an audio recorded lectures accommodation must be permitted to record. Remember, the audio recording is the direct equivalent of written or typed notes.<\/p>\n
A classroom is built on an implicit consent to the recording on paper or digital document by anyone in class of all comments, questions, and discussions. As an audio recording is a direct equivalent to note-taking, students implicitly consent to the recording of audio as a necessity of a student\u2019s accommodation.<\/p>\n
Some classroom discussions include personal disclosure, confidential information, and particularly sensitive subjects. In those instances, best practice would be to inform the class that no one should record the session, be it via handwritten, typed, or audio recorded notes.<\/p>\n
Allowing students to type or handwrite notes but prohibiting a student from recording audio will be a failure of the legal duty to accommodate as the audio recording is the student’s substitute for written or typed notes.<\/p>\n
Instructors can record lectures and distribute the files via the institution\u2019s LMS or email. Recording lectures allows instructors to stop and start, or retroactively edit, the recording as appropriate to exclude sensitive discussions.<\/p>\n
