Research title
Researcher’s Name
(Directions: Include this form in your protocol submission if you will be videotaping
participants. If you are videotaping children, you will need to have their parents’
permission. Please include only those uses of the video that you intend. All are
included here to give you an idea of how you might want to use the video in the
future. If you think that someday you might put this up on a web site, ask permission
now, rather than having to go back to the participants later. If you have no intention
of using it on a web site, don’t include that option on this form. If you include #4,
specify what level classroom—elementary/middle/high school/college, and for what
purpose. Delete these instructions before turning in your finished document.)
