UCLA Forbids Teachers From Posting Video

Patricia Aufderheide has posted on a recent decision by UCLA to forbid teachers from posting video. The decision comes as a result of copyright concerns. From the post:

Recently several communities of practice have formulated collective interpretations of fair use, or codes of best practices in fair use. These codes have dramatically reshaped practice in fields such as documentary film and media literacy education. They are used daily by online video makers who enthusiastically embrace fair use without legal harassment.
