Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a hot topic everywhere these days. What is it, what are its promises, and what are its current limitations in terms of applicability to the work we do in a registrar's office. You'll hear from the Chief AI Officer at George Mason University about the promises and challenges of AI, and from a privacy and information law attorney about some of the considerations we should be making as we pursue any new technology, but AI especially. Key Takeaways:There are many promises of AI, but there are some significant challenges currently, as well. Don't be swept away by the promises without engaging with the limitations.As registrars we have a special responsibility to make sure that the AI we employ maintains the safety, security, and integrity of the data we steward. The Fair Information Practice Principles (FIPPs) can help guide us to positive data governance outcomes.  Be wary of shiny new things. If the promise of something is too good to be true, it probably is. Explore AI and imagine ways it might be applied in your office, but AI is not the only tool available to us, and (in my opinion) we might be better served by pursuing intelligent automation solutions than artificial intelligence (AI) solutions. Host:Doug McKennaUniversity Registrar, George Mason Universitycmckenn@gmu.edu   Guests:Amarda Shehu, PhDChief Artificial Intelligence Officer and Professor, Computer Science, School of Computing, George Mason UniversityClaire McKennaUniversity of Notre Dame Law SchoolClaire McKenna is an attorney with 21 years of experience advising public and private sector clients.  Her practice focuses on all aspects of information law, including privacy, security, access, and disclosure.References and Additional Information:Fair Information Practice Principles (FIPPs) | FPC.govWeapons of Math Destruction by Cathy O'Neil: 9780553418835 | PenguinRandomHouse.com: BooksThe Big Switch | Nicholas Carr  (Sorry I called you “David,” Nicholas!)How much electricity does AI consume?

In this episode of House of #EdTech, host Chris Nesi discusses the importance of critically evaluating educational technology in classrooms. He shares insights from Jessica Grose's NYT article about ensuring tech tools serve educational purposes and protect student privacy. The episode features the announcement of MagicSchool.ai as the 2024 HOET Final Four Winner and an EdTech recommendation for Vocabulary Quest, a gamified vocabulary learning platform. Additionally, Chris bids farewell to SatChat, reflecting on its impact on the education community. Resources Mentioned: MagicSchool.ai - 2024 HOET Final Four Winner Vocabulary Quest - EdTech Recommendation Every Tech Tool in the Classroom Should Be Ruthlessly Evaluated - Article by Jessica Grose SatChat - Discussion on SatChat ending 2024 HOET Final Four Winner: MagicSchool.ai We're excited to announce MagicSchool.ai as the 2024 HOET Final Four Winner! MagicSchool.ai stands out for its innovative approach to personalized learning and real-time performance assessment. This AI-based tool is transforming how students engage with educational content, making learning more interactive and effective. Congratulations to MagicSchool.ai for this well-deserved recognition. EdTech Thought: The End of an Era? Goodbye SatChat We begin with a reflective EdTech Thought segment, marking the end of an era with the conclusion of SatChat. For years, SatChat has been a cornerstone of the education community, providing a platform for educators to connect, share insights, and grow together. Hosts Billy Krakower, Scott Rocco, and Brad Currie have created a lasting legacy, and we take a moment to honor their contributions and discuss the future of such initiatives in the education space. EdTech Recommendation: Vocabulary Quest Our EdTech Recommendation for this episode is Vocabulary Quest, an innovative platform that gamifies vocabulary learning. Whether you're a student, professional, or language enthusiast, Vocabulary Quest transforms the often tedious task of memorizing new words into an engaging adventure. With gamified levels, interactive stories, puzzles, and personalized learning paths, this tool not only makes learning fun but also significantly boosts retention rates. Here's why Vocabulary Quest stands out: Gamified Learning: Turn vocabulary acquisition into an exciting game with progressive challenges. Personalized Stories and Puzzles: Engage with content tailored to your interests, enhancing learning efficiency. Advanced AI Memory Aids: Benefit from mnemonic devices, imagery, and associations designed to make words stick. Comprehensive Exam Preparation: Ideal for students preparing for exams like the SAT, ACT, or SSAT. Professional Communication: Elevate your career by mastering the right words for effective communication. Featured Content: Ruthlessly Evaluating EdTech Tools In our featured content, we dive into Jessica Grose's compelling article, "Every Tech Tool in the Classroom Should Be Ruthlessly Evaluated," published in The New York Times on April 24, 2024. Grose highlights the complex and often problematic landscape of educational technology, urging educators to take control of tech integration in their classrooms. Key takeaways from the article include: Educator-Driven Tech Use: Technology should be selected based on data and teacher experience, not dictated by tech companies. Commercial Origins of EdTech: Many tools were initially created for commercial purposes, which may not align with educational outcomes. Necessity and Good Standard: Schools should assess whether a tech tool is essential and beneficial from ethical and pedagogical perspectives. Privacy Concerns: Protecting student data is paramount. Solutions include destroying data after use and establishing an independent body to oversee digital product quality. Centralized Tech-Vetting: Post-pandemic, there is a need for standardized evaluation of tech tools at the district level. Classroom-Level Audits: Regularly audit tech tools to ensure they serve their intended purpose without creating additional problems. Authentic Connections: Beyond academics, technology should foster human relationships and community building in schools.

Concerned schools have asked the Privacy Commissioner about their options for installing CCTV in their bathrooms. In a bid to deter negative behaviour such as vaping and bullying in the toilets, schools are turning to cameras to monitor student activity. Privacy Commissioner Michael Webster is urging schools to assess the risks and potential privacy breaches ahead of future installations. "We absolutely understand the student safety argument, but we also want them to think really hard about student privacy arguments and values as well."

Surveillance cameras and other student monitoring tools are becoming more and more common in schools today. Laptops are distributed to the students and software is installed on them for their own protection, but it is important to know what is being done with the data collected outside of classroom use and if your students or your own privacy is being invaded.  Today's guest is Jason Kelley. Jason is the Associate Director of Digital Strategy at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, focusing on how privacy and surveillance impact digital liberties. Before joining EFF, Jason managed marketing strategy and content for a software company that helps non-programmers learn to code, and advertising and marketing analytics for a student loan startup. Show Notes: [0:53] - Jason describes his current role at Electronic Frontier Foundation. [2:32] - Big tech companies who offer devices to schools collect data from them. [4:17] - Physical surveillance has increased due to the continuous problem of school shootings. [6:01] - Surveillance cameras can be accessed directly by local police. Jason explains how this can be controversial. [8:34] - Jason and Chris discuss the reason for using school-issued devices only for education purposes. [9:53] - Surveillance cameras do have blind spots. Facial recognition also has some issues. [11:03] - When devices are provided, parents, young people, and even administrators don't always know the capabilities. [12:22] - Jason shares an example of one of the pitfalls of student monitoring apps that are on school issued devices. [14:07] - Schools can take screen captures from issued devices which isn't done out of malice but does raise questions about privacy. [15:12] - We have to choose which is more important: safety or privacy. [16:37] - Students and parents need to know that school issued devices have features that will impact privacy. [17:32] - Jason describes some of the differences between the types of alerts school administrators receive. [19:12] - Sometimes software blocks things that are safe and doesn't block things that could potentially be inappropriate. [20:50] - Teachers cannot have their eyes on every student's computer at all times and often rely on software to help. [22:04] - Teachers shouldn't be expected to know how surveillance software works. [23:01] - Jason describes a recent problem at Dartmouth with Canvas logs. [26:27] - This issue at Dartmouth was very serious and could have impacted the students' careers drastically. [28:21] - There is an epidemic of misunderstandings of technology. [29:24] - EFF offers guides for students on what to do and expect with school-issued devices. [30:42] - There have been a lot of successful petitions in recent years about data tracking in universities. Parents have some leverage here as well. [33:00] - Sometimes, there's not anything you can do about student surveillance. [34:20] - The Covid-19 pandemic made things very challenging as students needed access to education remotely very quickly. [36:50] - Jason describes some of the features of remote proctoring programs. [38:33] - This vastly impacted thousands of students who took the BAR exam. [40:36] - EFF has been pushing back on proctoring and Jason explains a recent win. [42:18] - Jason is hopeful that the pandemic has made it more clear where technology fails us.

Episode 128 Hello and Welcome to another potentially useful episode of the TCAPSLoop Podcast! I’m not entirely sure if I’m legally allowed to introduce the co-hosts without first asking their consent so you'll have to listen for that reveal.     TCAPSLoops Moment of Zen A little consideration, A little thought for others, makes all the difference. - A.A. Milne Turns out Social Media isn’t all bad. I was browsing through teacher twitter a few weeks ago and came across a great tool shared by our #edtech hero, Liz Kolb concerning student privacy and immediately thought this would be a great pod topic. Not surprisingly Danelle and Stephie saw it too and had started scripting out a one act play based on the chart. Sadly, Stephie and Danelle were not quite prepared to share the trailer for the their new production but they do share thoughts on student privacy and copyright in the classroom.    Potentially Useful Links: Digital Legal Responsibilities for Teachers chart by Liz Kolb   Ethics in a Digital World by Kristen Mattson   Creative Commons Licenses   Tech Tool of the Week:  Sources for Icons Use with attribution - https://www.flaticon.com/ Freely use (but cannot sell)  - https://fonts.google.com/icons      Thanks for listening and inspiring!

Throughout school history students have heard the threat “That will go on your permanent record!” It didn't mean much since those permanent records were on paper and usually shoved to the back of a filing cabinet after graduation. But in recent years, now not only grades, but basically all that students & teachers do are recorded digitally to follow them for the rest of their lives; for good & for bad. Plus, US Dept. of Education actions are creating student privacy risks, and so are misguided attempts by school districts to improve safety in ways that invade privacy. Third parties, such as testing organizations, also are taking huge amounts of student personal data and monetizing it, further eroding student privacy. Listen in to this important conversation about privacy in schools, for students and teachers, the success so far of the Educator Toolkit for Teacher and Student Privacy, and much more, with AFT President, Randi Weingarten.
