Overview Our mission is to improve student data privacy in K-12 education by building public trust through providing practical support, meaningful guidance, and investigations.
Question about scenarios regarding graded papers for example spelling tests, graded worksheets or homework. 1. A teacher who either leave this work in a communal basket for students to comb through and collect on their own, or who have a class helper (I am elementary school) who passes back papers. 2. A teacher throws away old spelling tests. 3. A teacher who has a posted chart in the classroom with student names and checkmarks/stickers indicating competed assignments. 4. A teacher tapes pictures of individual children with their name to their classroom door (note our doors must be open so anyone in the building walking by could see them not just the students in the class). I typically error on the side of caution, but I know MANY teachers who fall into at least one of the above categories. By the strictest letter of the law, are these FERPA violations?
I'm not speaking on behalf of the student data privacy team in Utah, but 1 and 2 are not necessarily a violation. The grade in the grade book is considered the record, not the old paper test. Number 3 may be considered a violation because it may be seen as a student record since you are maintaining the information. I would be careful about that one. you could do it if the name wasn't there and the students were given a random number and they weren't listed in alphabetical order. Number 4 isn't really a violation. A name and picture are usually considered directory information which is permissable if a student hasn't opted out. Regardless, a student name and picture being posterd in the school isn't that big of deal. A student can't be anonymous if they are to attend school. It is perfectly reasonable that others in the school will see the student and know their name whether their picture and name are hanging up in a classroom. I wouldn't worry too much about it. Number 3 is the only one that might cause some concern.
Great info:).. Here is a video series explaining the Birth Certificate Bond and how the Banks are accessing our Birth Certificate Bonds and not telling us: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LJ1pVoNCdBU.html Please let me know what you think,,, Have a great night!!
Just a little heads up, there are 2 typos in this video "prediciting" and "destorying" for predicting and destroying. Just thought I would pass that along.
