  • FERPA requires schools to maintain control over certain student records
  • medical information, social security numbers, and grades
  • Some people think that students cannot release any personally identifiable student information, but this is also not true
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • This is an important point if instructors require students to post to a blog, social networking site, or any other site not affiliated with the institution. In this case, “the activity may not be FERPA-protected because it has not been received and therefore is not in the custody of the university, at least until the student submission is copied or possibly just reviewed by the faculty member.”
  • FERPA applies only to information in the possession of the institution
  • When students are assigned to post information to public social media platforms outside of the university LMS, they should be informed that their material may be viewed by others
  • Students should not be required to release personal information on a public site.
  • Instructor comments or grades on student material should not be made public.

  • I've helped with more computers in more schools than anybody else in the world and I absolutely convinced that is by no means the most important thing. The most important thing is a person. A person who incites your curiosity and feeds your curiosity; and machines cannot do that in the same way that people can. The elements of discovery are all around you. You don't need a computer.
  • Computers are very reactive but they're not proactive; they are not agents
  • What children need is something more proactive. They need a guide. They don't need an assistant
