[Open-education] Friday Chat: Privacy and open education continued...

Fri Sep 26 09:44:34 UTC 2014

Hi everyone,

There was no Friday chat last week as we were in the middle of an 
interesting discussion on the quantified student.

The discussion leads into a more general question on how open education 
and privacy are related. Is it just to do with data? Are there other 
areas of interception? What about courses? Are there privacy issues 
related to open educational practices?

It's not an area I can find much on. For a starter I wondered if we 
could crowd source some useful resources related to open education and 
privacy.

  * Any articles related to this area
  * Any discussion ideas related to this area
  * Any legal acts etc. related to this area
  * List of privacy statements for online courses/MOOCs/open education
    providers etc.
  * Any videos on this

Here's a couple to get us started:

Privacy statements for Open Evidence hub 
<http://ci.olnet.org/ui/pages/privacy.php> and Open Education Consortium 
<http://www.oeconsortium.org/terms-of-use-and-privacy-policies/>

BC Privacy Laws and Online Technology 
<http://bcopened.org/resources/250-2/>: Page contains information and 
resources on the topic of online privacy and the use of educational 
technologies in British Columbia.

Education week article: Prominent Ed-Tech Players' Data-Privacy Policies 
Attract Scrutiny 
<http://www.edweek.org/ew/articles/2014/04/16/28privacy_ep.h33.html>

Any thoughts?
