Edtech Company Proposes Remote Learning Student Bill of Rights
ProctorU, an online proctoring solution, has proposed a “student bill of rights” for remote learning with the goal of developing a “level playing field for students as schools continue delivering classes online.” The initiative lists seven expectations or “rights” students should be able to rely on as they learn remotely including: • The right to have questions about digital or remote work responded to “clearly and promptly” • All student work is believed to be completed with “honesty and integrity” unless proved otherwise • The understanding that all parties engaged in remote learning comply with federal and state privacy laws related to student privacy • The right to expect policies and procedures are
in place and are followed to ensure the integrity of student work • The right to review any policies that may provide an unfair advantage if work is completed using “inappropriate or unauthorized tools, tactics or assistance” • The right to know what data is collected, why it is collected, where it is stored and how the data will be used • “The expectation that data collection is specific and limited.” The CEO of ProctorU also points out students should be able to understand the policies and procedures outlined above to help students “make good decisions.” You can visit this dedicatedwebsite to review the proposed Student Bill of Rights and to leave a comment or join the effort.
