On
the issue of recording lectures, here is the official
University position
University policy allows for students with specific learning difficulties to request permission to film lectures. Students who find it impossible or difficult to take lecture notes (e.g. who have provided evidence of visual/hearing impairment, dyslexia, dysgraphia or mobility impairments) can ask the Disability Advisers to make arrangements with their lecturers in order to allow them to record lectures. Students needing to record oral lectures should note that the content of an oral lecture remains the property of the lecturer delivering it. When taping a lecture, the recording must only be used for the student's personal study. It must not be reproduced or passed on to anyone else, other than for transcription purposes. All students who make arrangements to record lectures will be asked to sign a declaration agreeing to these conditions of use which are set out in the University Guidance for staff and students on recording of oral lectures by students with specific learning needs. For more information, contact the Disability Advisers in the Student Support and Accommodation Service.
