As a student, you may neither record classes nor share the teacher’s recordings of classes from a course forum in Brightspace or Panopto without consent from the teacher and your fellow students. This is due to rules about copyright and data protection.
If you record or share a recording of a class without consent, this will be regarded as a breach of the university's rules and regulations and a violation of the teachers’ copyrights. Breaches of the rules and regulations are handled in accordance with AU's disciplinary rules.
Special exceptions
As a student, if you wish to record teaching as part of the study assistant scheme or the dual career scheme, for classroom teaching, you can only do so with the teacher’s and your fellow students’ consent. This is for the sake of your fellow students.
If you wish to record a lecture, you must notify your teacher at least one week before the lecture takes place. You do not require consent from your fellow students to record a lecture.
If you need to record a class as part of special educational support (SPS) and have, for example, been given a dictaphone on the grounds of a functional impairment, you can record a class without obtaining consent. However, you must notify the teacher at least one week before you wish to record the class.
For both classroom teaching and lectures, recordings covered by the above exceptions must avoid including fellow students’ personal data to the greatest extent possible, such as video images of fellow students or personal data on a white board or similar. The recording must be deleted as soon as it has been used for the purpose intended and no later than at the end of the semester. Recordings must never be shared with others. Sharing is regarded as a breach of the university's rules and regulations and a copyright infringement.
