UCU wary of lecture capture
Adam Warren says,

The University and College Union (UCU) in Britain has, as Adam Warren says, "passed a motion (HE43) at their recent HE sector conference that expresses some of the anxieties that surround lecture capture." The first item - to support professors who refuse to record lectures - has been "remitted" (in Canada, we would say that it has been tabled). The remaining three items, expressing doubts about the ubiquity and scale of lecture capture projects, were passed. I've always felt, first, that whether or not to record one's work should remain a personal choice, but second, that everyone should do so. In other words, I don't think edicts are appropriate, but support and encouragement should certainly be there.
