What?
Videoing Kids in the Classroom - A blog entry. I was reading this blog on a question a teacher had a concern about video taping students in the classroom.
So What?
Needleman makes a good point of saying that anytime you use video in the classroom, it's probably a good idea to get consent from the parents first.
What Now?
I think we need to make sure we are covering our bases when we plan to use things like video in our classrooms. You will be pretty limited if you have even one parent that refuses to give consent to their child being recorded and you had this whole plan involving video. Maybe you could put that kid behind the camera or work on the editing, but it's something to think about.

Thats a good point Bethany. We need to make sure that parents have said it is ok to use video cameras and digital cameras in our classroom. This is another easy way to get ourselves into trouble.
