Yes: The default view of the Connecticut Product Library shows companies that have taken the pledge. You can also broaden the search to find more than 3,500 products in global LearnPlatform library.

Hi Doug,

This is wonderful!  This looks like exactly what I was hoping to find.  Just to confirm though...every company that is listed on the Connecticut Educational Software Hub has taken the pledge, correct?  I just want to make sure that I'm not missing a search feature that enables me to filter out companies that have not taken the pledge in the advanced search.

Thank you so much.
Ariel

Good morning, everyone.

The State Commission for Educational Technology has completed a soft launch of the Connecticut Educational Software Hub:

http://connecticut.learnplatform.com

Registering on the site provides you with a list of applications whose companies have taken the Connecticut Student Data Privacy Pledge, which commits them to comply in their contracts with the requirements of our state statute (PA 16-189 and 17-200). We also encourage vendors to learn more about the site and take the pledge at http://connecticut.learnplatform.com/faqs/.

We will be sending a formal announcement soon the broader educational community. Until then, you can view our recorded demo of the Hub and other background information on the Commission’s Student Data Privacy page:

http://www.ct.gov/ctedtech/cwp/view.asp?a=1182&q=253410

I welcome your feedback and suggestions.

Best,

Doug

Hello all.

I have a couple of questions relating to data security/privacy and am hoping that you might be able to help guide me in the right direction.

1. Is there a website I could go to in order to find a list of companies that have submitted the required written agreements per Public Act 16-189?  I would like to find a way to check that companies that teachers are using have completed this requirement.

2. Along the same lines...do any of you have written policy detailing how your district complies with this law?  My district is looking at creating a more formalized policy and I would love to see what other districts are doing.

3. What are your thoughts on classroom data being posted in hallways?  I know FERPA comes into play, although I'm not as familiar with CT-specific laws and regulations.  Any specific reading suggestions?

Thank you!
Ariel
