Artifact # 2
Permission Slip for a Video Interview: A permission slip for parents/guardians to sign so that their child could be interviewed.
Context
In my Block Experience at ASU, I did a video documentary on the effects
of Mass Media on Children. We interviewed the children about who
they look up to or admire. In order to video the children, I sent
home a permission slip to parents.
Impact
The permission slip was created in order to tell the parents of the
children in the class a little about the interview that we were going to
videotape. It insured parents that the documentary would not be broadcasted
and that it was only for my learning and development as a teacher.
I will be able to use this type of permission slip when I am teaching in
my classroom because these procedures for photographing and videotaping
students are always necessary in order to fully inform parents.
Alignment
This artifact is a procedure that ensures compliance with security
and child protection (Tech
Comp 14.1).
The product also serves as a way to communicate with parents.
It supports student learning because the students were able to participate
in an interview/study about heroes. Sending home a permission slip
informs parents about what students are doing in class and helps to foster
relationships with them (INTASC
#10). Permission slips also give parents a way to participate
in classroom activities.
