Policy analysis• Examined 11 institutions
• Compared with Jisc guidance as a benchmark
• Looked only at what was provided (some policies are behind registration walls)
• Created 5 higher level and 12 lower level categories
High level categories
Appetite for risk Support and guidance
Institutional control Open practice
Comprehensiveness of approach
Emerging patterns
Findings
Variety of approaches
No clear models as yet
Policy is not the same as practice
Jisc guidance not widely adopted
Support should be clear, helpful and practical
Institutional culture of risk difficult to determine
Open practice not widespread
Recommendations
Minimum standards in lecture recording policy should be adopted
Staff and students should be involved in policy development
Responsibility for managing risk should be clarified
Copyright advice and guidance should be provided
Institutional policies should refer to ‘open educational resources’ and open practice far more
Embedding open practice
Further Research
Relationship between institutional approach
to risk and lecture recording
Understand optimum involvement of
academic staff in debates
Exploring the impact of copyright guidance and
levels of copyright literacy amongst staff
Identify ways to engage with ‘open’ culture alongside concerns
over academic identities
