HLP Video User Agreement
Purpose: The purpose of the HLP video series is to define high-leverage practices (HLPs) and provide a demonstration of what they look like in practice across both general education and special education settings.
Before You Begin: Prior to using the videos, we recommend that you view the Introductory Video to the Series so that you understand each video’s structure and intended purpose.
User Agreement: These videos represent an attempt to capture the use of HLPs in actual classrooms. The teachers and students featured in this video series are not actors. The teachers are certified professionals and were recruited following a nomination process from their school/district leadership. Parents of all students signed consent forms; many students have individualized education plans (IEPs). The teachers were asked to demonstrate specific HLPs, but did not receive a script. These videos are meant only as examples; viewer opinion on aspects of the videos will vary. Implementation of the HLPs might look different based on individual classroom circumstances.
While permission to use these videos is not necessary, the citations should be:
