Welcome to the Minding Privacy Workshop!
Privacy pedagogy is “teaching about privacy while also teaching with our privacy principles” (Wharton et al. in Hartman-Caverly & Chisholm, 2023, p. 287).
In this privacy pedagogy workshop, participants will:
- Discuss privacy as it relates to teaching and learning, including FERPA and its limitations, in order to appreciate how privacy considerations can positively impact the student experience
- Critically evaluate the privacy impacts of learning design choices in order to develop a syllabus statement on student privacy
- Explore privacy concepts in disciplinary contexts in order to identify course-related privacy topics
- Apply privacy pedagogy principles in order to incorporate privacy concepts into course content and learning design
