||||||||||||||||
7.11.1 Policy 7.11.1 PolicyQUT seeks to provide excellent learning environments as part of its stated objectives. The University recognises that the recording of lectures, either audio or video, or the streaming of lectures can assist students by providing them with the ability to review and revise lecture material. It also facilitates the “time shifting or place shifting” of lectures, for example in the case of students studying by distance mode. 7.11.2 Recording by facultiesThe University does not mandate a comprehensive system of recording lectures.

There is therefore no copyright reason for refusing a request by a student to record a lecture. Related DocumentsMOPP A/8.6 Disability services policy Modification History
