Re: Obtaining Permissions for Video Recording
Dear School or District Administrator,
We appreciate your willingness to host a NLU student teacher as they prepare to become a licensed professional. In order to fulfill requirements for State of Illinois Teacher Licensure, students complete a performance assessment during full-day student teaching that requires students to document a series of lessons using video recordings. These requirements were sent to the school when the placement was confirmed. However, we are also using video reflection as a powerful tool to have students and clinical educators provide targeted lesson feedback during the practicum experience.
If permission to videotape is required, a school-provided or NLU created release can suffice for this requirement.
Sincerely,
Dr. Jamillah Gilbert Director, School of Teacher Preparation National Louis University jgilbert@nl.edu
