Q: We have recorded several class sessions that were held over Zoom. Can those recordings be shared with students that were absent from that class meeting? Can the recordings be shared with students taking a different course, but where the content would be helpful to them?
A: Any recording that is saved and captures students in an identifiable way, such as their images or names being shown in the recording, is a private education record under FERPA. The recordings can still be shared with students in that class section because they are enrolled together and are aware of each other's presence in the (virtual) classroom. However, the recordings cannot be shared with other people, unless the identified students give permission. For more information, consult the FERPA resources for COVID-19 document linked from the ASR website.
