Can you post pictures of young learners?

500+ crayon points... that's quite a collection!

The subject came up at our young learners' seminar today... Can you post pictures of your young learners on the Internet, for example on a blog?

I'd personally say, no, and definitely not without your school's and the kids' parents' permission -- signed, and in writing.

Even then, I think it's vital to protect your kids' privacy.

In the seminar, one of the things I suggested you could have kids blog about would be the things they collect. I showed you the example of my daughter's collection of pencil points, shown above. I've partly got round the privacy issue by not posting a picture of her face... and it still makes an interesting photo.

But even then, I'd still get written permission to publish it on the Web.
