Exploring Student Data Privacy and Data Ethics: A Tabletop Experience
January 17, 2025
EXPO HALL LEADERSHIP ROUND TABLES: BOOTH 3386
District Leaders
Student data privacy and data ethics are essential topics that should be included in School Leader training. School Leaders’ role requires them to make daily decisions that impact which student data is collected or revealed, how the data is stored, how data is interpreted and used to make decisions about students, and how district and state policies are upheld in the classroom. Responsible data use is more than compliance with laws and regulations; it requires practices that ensure ethical and equitable uses of data that work to minimize the potential for harm. This session will use a tabletop format to explore the free resource from the Future of Privacy Forum (FPF): Student Data Privacy and Data Ethics Scenarios for School Leaders. School systems leverage this resource to help leaders understand privacy risks and ethical concerns that arise in school-based situations and provide expert guidance on mitigating risk and harm through discussions on the legal obligations and best practices for protecting student data privacy. Join this workshop-style session to dive into data privacy scenarios and practice how you might facilitate discussions in your district.
