Tech: Examples of student work- Getting permission for future use

On many occasions you may want to share previous student work. For example, students often like to see examples of an assignment to help them understand what they are being asked to do. Or you may want to share an anonymous example in your teaching portfolio or at a presentation for colleagues. As you know, instructors need to get student permission to share their work, as the student retains copyright. Now is a good time to think about getting student permission to use their work as examples in your future classes. 

You may get permission from students over email, but it may be easier to ask them to fill out a form in class. Many online examples exist. The Online Learning Consortium provides a Google form here that you may copy and edit to fit your course (be sure to correct the university name to Denison).
