VIDEO CONSENT FORM

Online Reading Project :

Some of your child’s responses will be video-recorded in the course of this study. We will label all data with identifying numbers rather than names or any other information associated with his/her identity. However, because face information is important in signing, it is not possible to fully conceal your child’s identity. Therefore we will seek your specific consent for the different possible uses of still images or video clips from which your child might be recognised. We will only use your still or video images in those circumstances for which you have explicitly given consent.

Please mark “YES” if you give permission for us to use images or brief clips from your video data for a particular purpose, “NO” if you do not give permission.

Do you give permission for this use?
