FAQ 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?
Yes, it's okay to record remote lectures, but remember to only record audio and video of teachers, not students. If a lecture is recorded, students must be able to ask questions and participate separate from the recording.
How do I include a student's question in the video without violating GDPR?
Since students are not allowed to appear with their name, voice or image, the recorded question needs to be edited out. However, you can add a text sign with the question afterwards or repeat the student's question yourself before answering it. That way, the question is clear without the student appearing in the video.
Do I have to record remote lectures?
No, it is up to you as a teacher to decide if you want to record and share your lectures. However, you may be asked by Funka to record lectures as compensatory support if a student needs it.
Are students allowed to record my lectures?
No, it is not allowed.
Are recorded lectures public record?
Yes, recorded lectures become public documents to be kept for two years and may be released on request.
