This week, the Department’s Privacy Technical Assistance Center (PTAC)
released new guidance
<http://ptac.ed.gov/document/protecting-student-privacy-while-using-online-educational-services>
to help school systems and educators interpret and understand the major
laws and best practices protecting student privacy while using online
educational services. The guidance summarizes the major requirements of
the/Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act/ (FERPA) and the
/Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment /(PPRA) that relate to these
educational services. It also urges schools and school districts to go
beyond compliance, to follow best practices for outsourcing school
functions using online educational services, including computer
software, mobile applications, and web-based tools.
To review this guidance and solicit feedback, the Department and PTAC
will be hosting a joint webinar
<https://edinfoevents.webex.com/mw0401l/mywebex/default.do?nomenu=true&siteurl=edinfoevents&service=6&rnd=0.5364469841849653&main_url=https%3A%2F%2Fedinfoevents.webex.com%2Fec0701l%2Feventcenter%2Fevent%2FeventAction.do%3FtheAction%3Ddetail%26confViewID%3D1005178099%26%26%26%26siteurl%3Dedinfoevents>
on March 13 at 2:30 p.m. Eastern Time.
Moreover, in a speech
<http://www.ed.gov/news/speeches/technology-education-privacy-and-progress>
at the Common Sense Media Privacy Zone Conference, Secretary Duncan took
a strong stance on student privacy, saying, “We cannot ask our schools
to choose between privacy and progress.”
