Common legal questions about remote and hybrid teaching

Here are answers to frequently asked questions about remote and hybrid teaching from a legal perspective. The questions mainly concern the handling of recorded material.

Can I record my remote lectures?

No, it is not allowed.

Are recorded lectures public record?
