Public Photograpy Is Not a Crime - 0 views
-
Subject to certain very limited constraints, it is not a crime in Canada for anyone to do any of the following things, and it is a violation of their Charter rights to prevent anyone from doing so: photographing or filming in any public place, or in any private place to which the public is admitted, and publishing those pictures and films, taking pictures of or filming in any government site other than “restricted access areas”* photographing or filming police officers in public, as long as the photographer/filmmaker does not obstruct or interfere with the execution of police duties. While everyone has a reasonable expectation of privacy in certain circumstances, police officers have no reasonable expectation of privacy as they go about their duties.

The Tell-All Generation Learns When Not To, at Least Online - NYTimes.com - 55 views
-
They are more diligent than older adults, however, in trying to protect themselves. In a new study to be released this month, the Pew Internet Project has found that people in their 20s exert more control over their digital reputations than older adults, more vigorously deleting unwanted posts and limiting information about themselves. “Social networking requires vigilance, not only in what you post, but what your friends post about you,” said Mary Madden, a senior research specialist who oversaw the study by Pew, which examines online behavior. “Now you are responsible for everything.”

The biggest advantage bubbl.us has over other mind-mapping software is that you do not have to have an account to create and print a mind-map (also known as a concept map). This means students can get online, map the concept they have been assigned, and print it out for you to grade.
-
TIPS FOR YOU As you have your students work with bubbl, here are some tips to keep in mind. “FIT” centers the mind-map in the middle of the screen (useful for panicked students who think their whole project has been deleted) if students move a “parent” bubble, all the “child” bubbles will follow along
-
But I knew that bubbl was truly useful when one of my students reported she had used it to help her decide which college to attend.

Apologies - that UKL works: http://www.cvwer.org/2011/01/journal-of-virtual-worlds-and-education/, but the link to the journal itself does go to a holding page saying the domain is pending renewal or deletion.

COPPA and Schools: The (Other) Federal Student Privacy Law, Explained - Education Week - 4 views
-
In a nutshell, COPPA requires operators of commercial websites, online services, and mobile apps to notify parents and obtain their consent before collecting any personal information on children under the age of 13. The aim is to give parents more control over what information is collected from their children online.
-
This law directly regulates companies, not schools. But as the digital revolution has moved into the classroom, schools have increasingly been put in the middle of the relationship between vendors and parents.
-
In some cases, companies may try to shift some of the burden of COPPA compliance away from themselves and onto schools

“That is not without risk, and COPPA has a whole lot of gray area that gives school attorneys pause.”
-
Less clear, though, is whether COPPA covers information such as IP (internet protocol) address, device identification number, the type of browser being used, or other so-called metadata that can often be used to identify users.
-
some school lawyers have taken the FTC’s previous guidance to mean that their districts must get consent from every single parent, for every single product that collects information online from young children.
-
First, according to the FTC, schools can grant consent on behalf of parents only when the operator of the website, online service, or app in question is providing a service that is “solely for the benefit of students and the school system” and is specific to “the educational context.”
-
will any information collected from children under 13 be used or shared for commercial purposes unrelated to education? Are schools allowed to review the information collected on students? Can schools request that student info be deleted? If the answers to that second group of questions are, respectively, yes, no, or no, schools are not allowed to grant consent on behalf of parents, according to the FTC.
-
Many vendors also allow third-party trackers (usually related to analytics or advertising) to be embedded into their sites and services.
-
Often through an Acceptable Use Policy or similar document that is sent home to parents at the beginning of the school year, said Fitzgerald of Common Sense Media.
-
Even better, Fitzgerald said, is when schools provide a detailed list of exactly what websites/online services/apps students will be using, and what the information practices of each are.
-
some privacy experts say that a one-time, blanket sign-off at the beginning of the school year may not be considered valid notification and consent under COPPA, especially if it doesn’t list the specific online services that children will be using.
-
responsibility for deciding “whether a particular site’s or service’s information practices are appropriate” not be delegated to teachers.
-
One is “click-wrap agreements.” Often, these are the kinds of agreements that almost all of us are guilty of just clicking through without actually reading
