<p>Fellow UCLA Bruins,</p>
<p>Do most professors/TAs provide the audio/video of every lecture?</p>
<p>I was thinking about recording via an app but I figured that if it's going to be available there's no need to do that.</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>I’ve noticed that it’s more often the south campus classes (lavelle’s chem classes, most of the LS classes I’ve taken, physics) that have the recorded lectures, but it’s not guaranteed. I don’t think I’ve ever had a humanities class that’s been podcasted. Even when the class is podcasted I’d still see a lot of people recording the lectures anyway.</p>
<p>You can look at the listing of courses with audio/video recorded on Bruincast by quarter
[COURSES</a> ? UCLA Office of Instructional Development](<a href=“http://www.bruincast.ucla.edu/]COURSES”>http://www.bruincast.ucla.edu/)</p>
<p>The instructors decide whether or not to have their classes recorded, so the listings change accordingly. I’ve had a lot of chemistry classes recorded, and perhaps a few humanities classes.</p>
<p>A lot of people do record classes on their own devices. Some instructors may tell you not to do it in their class.</p>
<p>I am a north campus major and about half of my classes have been video/audio recorded. </p>
<p>A word of warning though, if a professor requests that you do not record his/her lectures do yourself a favor and abide by their wishes. I have had a couple of classes where the professor has asked that students not record and they do it anyway. If you get away with it, it is fine I suppose, but if you get caught …</p>
<p>Some professors are very sensitive about the possibility their lectures getting out and are quite serious about it. We had one professor give a very stern warning when he realized some people were secretly recording. For those not from California (and even for those who are), California is a two party consent state, making it a crime to record someone without consent of all parties. So just get permission!</p>
