Joyce,
I think that recording that way, with just the teacher, or you as a student,
or an interviewer of the teacher would be a very interesting prospect.
That way the confidentiality of the students in a class that had been given
would not be compromised. You might even have questions that could be
submitted in advance to be used to read into the recorded class.

The one thing I hear the most from everyone is, "How can they get
recordings, directions and patterns from classes already given at Krafters
Korner?
This is an area that got way out of hand going back a couple of years.
The members of NFB Krafters Division voted on this matter and the teachers.
All teachers have to be paid members so they have the right to vote on
things regarding the division and rules. We have been facing the issue
that
our membership has grown beyond the borders of the United States and time
zones. The teachers had expressed their concerns that NFB Krafters
Division
did not have the rights to the recordings. Since the recordings were being
done under the supervision of the NFB Krafters Division and I felt we were
responsible for keeping these recordings archived for a certain length of
time
To clarify this there was a vote to record or not to record a class and who
responsibilty was it to archive it.
The majority voted that they did not want the classes recorded and the
recordings would not be kept. So we stopped recording the classes and all
recordings were deleted.
I was faced with teachers approaching me independently asking if I would
record their classes. I felt it was up to the teacher to make that
decision
and I planned on continue recording my classes and distributing them to my
students. I did not put this out to the list, but I gradually heard from
several of the teachers asking me if I would record their classes. I did
not publicize this on the list and only the teachers who contacted me on
their own did I do this for. I use to send out the recordings to the
students in the class as I had the class lists. That is why I send the
class list
to the teachers and if their class is recorded I send the teacher the link
for the recording. It is then up to the teacher to send it out to her
students and keep it archived.
So there are many classes that do not have recordings and I will say that
since we changed over to Free Conference Call.com I don't know how long they
keep the recordings that have been recorded on the website. I do have
class listswith phone numbers and teachers names, but it would take a lot of
time to research what is recorded and what is not.
A few of the teachers and I have spoken about doing some recordings of
classes with a teacher and myself as the student and record it and touch it
up
and sell as a fundraising thing, but we haven't gotten any further with
that and this is something I would like to go further with, but it would
only
involved a teacher and myself and it would be an agreement between the
teacher and me to use it to be a fundraiser for NFB Krafters Division.
This
would have to be thought out and agreed upon.
I don't want to get into any problems and I only want to do what I can for
our division.
