Hi Lauren,
Georgia State does not allow this, unfortunately, probably due to our recent legal battles regarding copyright behind the CMS wall. We still show physical films held on reserve in the CIRCLE and in the library. I’ve looked into a number
of LOCAL video streaming solutions, such as local network media servers, to allow the CIRCLE to get out of the physical media dependencies, but so far I’ve found nothing that works for us, either financially or legally. (which is so darned frustrating, because
I know of a dozen ways to do this that are cheap and illegal.
😉. )
PS – See you next week at IALLT in Eugene! We can talk more there!
Best,
Trish

Subject: [LLTI] Sharing video-copyright
Hi,
I realize that we aren’t lawyers but I’m wondering what the general thoughts in the field are about copyright and sharing videos in blended and online courses. I’m finding that around our state there are different rules on different campuses.
If an instructor is teaching a film class and students need to watch complete movies some campuses find it OK to do this as long as the films are behind the protection of a CMS login. Other campuses are not. On some campuses it is OK to show the film during
class across a classroom-based videoconferencing network where students as a group in a classroom on multiple campuses are able to see the film at the same time.
What does your campus agree to be the legal policy around this? As more courses are shared across institutions how do you show/share full-length films with your students? These are not films that are available on Netflix, they are films
from other countries that have been purchased by an institution and previously made available locally to students in the language lab and/or local classroom viewing.
I appreciate your thoughts on this.
